Growing up in Island Park, I feel so lucky to have created All About Smiles, which has served my hometown and the Oceanside community for over 30 years. I personally look forward to welcoming you and your family to our unique, one-of-a-kind dental home, where guests become friends and friends become family.
I earned my Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) from the State University of New York at Stonybrook. Immediately following my dental education, I obtained my specialty certificate in pediatric dentistry from Montefiore Medical Center/Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Being elected Chief Resident sparked a strong passion for teaching, leading me to actively pursue a faculty teaching position in the children’s dentistry program at SUNY Stonybrook School of Dental Medicine.
Pediatric dentistry is my calling. I have a passion for teaching and caring for children, especially those with special challenges. I feel blessed to be a part of a profession that combines all the things I love most: science, education, teaching, artistry and most of all the opportunity to play a role in caring for your children and your family.
As a mom, my mantra has always been, “I am the next best thing to having your mommy as your dentist.” I am here to be your child’s personal cheerleader. I am here to give them confidence and make hard moments a little bit easier. To me, pediatric dentistry is not just about teeth. It is about trust, empowerment, and helping children see their own strength and accomplishments, no matter how big or small.
I truly understand how important your child’s dental care is, and I promise to treat your child just as I would treat my own daughter, Lindsay. I will always try to exceed your expectations while empowering you to make the best decisions for your child. I look forward to meeting each of you and learning more about your story.
