I graduated from Tufts School of Dental Medicine (Boston), in 1995. I was awarded a Fellowship at Harvard Dental School and completed a General Practice Residency at the Brigham and Womens Hospital, which is an affiliate of Harvard University.

I completed a two-year program at New York University in Full Mouth Rehabilitation (crown and bridge work). I am a member of the Academy of General Dentistry and the American Dental Association. In March of 2001, I completed the necessary post-graduate coursework and training to attain the rank of Fellow from the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD).

I hope that my educational record from top dental programs in the country and my achievement of the FAGD indicate to you my total commitment to excellence in dentistry. Dentistry is my craft and my passion. I am constantly keeping abreast of the latest developments to ensure that my staff and I stay on the cutting edge of the field.

I established Soams Dental Care after several years of practicing in the area. Soams Dental Care is part of a Danbury tradition of dental comfort and care. The office is state-of-the-art with staff members who are highly trained and genuinely interested in providing you with the highest quality dental experience.

I own Soams Dental Care and am the sole dentist in the office Soams is not a group practice or part of some regional dental chain with owners in another area. A patient at Soams is my patient, and I highly value this personal relationship between dentist and patient.
