I am fortunate to have found orthodontics as a life passion. It is a uniquely rewarding profession, and it suits my skills as a practitioner. The good orthodontist must combine several innate attributes: good eye for angles and spacial relationships, patience, ability to listen and communicate, and ability to get teeth straight. (That last one was a joke)

I attended the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine from 1985 to 1989, and at age 43 as of 2007, I consider myself neither inexperienced, nor antiquated. After practicing general dentistry for two years, I was accepted into a specialty program in Orthodontics at Montefiore/Albert Einstein, a small, yet highly regarded, intense residency. In 1994, I established both the Riverdale and Manhattan practices.

In 2005, I became President of the local chapter of the American Dental Association. I am certified by the American Board of Orthodontics, the only orthodontic specialty board recognized by the American Dental Association and sponsored by the American Association of Orthodontists. I have lectured to and trained other practitioners starting out with Invisalign, and I've spoken at various local study clubs. I serve as a consultant for Invisalign, helping doctors around the country, on a daily basis, with their Invisalign cases.
