“I opened Willow Grove Dentistry in 2011 to realize my vision of a modern, clean, state-of-the-art dental office that provides top-notch dentistry and customer service. We know that many people experience hesitation or anxiety regarding dental visits, and we strive to make our office as inviting and comfortable as possible. I enjoy getting to know my patients and learning about their families and lives. I love my profession and couldn’t see myself doing anything else.”
