Why does Mark like being a dentist so much? “I love working with people, and also working with my hands and doing highly technical things,” he says. “I’m kind of a construction worker!” he laughs. “It’s like I’m a site planner, engineer, construction worker, and ribbon cutter all in one. I’ve done almost everything in dentistry, and now I specialize in surgical procedures that make a big difference to people’s lives.” An early and contagious passion Since the young age of 12, Mark’s goal was to become a dentist. While his best friend at that time wasn’t interested in dentistry, later in life Mark’s enthusiasm would win him over, and now Dr. Tim Winlow is a fellow dentist as well as a close friend. Together they established a program with Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) to help young cancer survivors in need of treatment recover their dental health. Training and early career Mark was awarded his BSc from the University of Western Ontario, and received his DDS from the University of Toronto in 2002. He moved to Ottawa in 2004, where his main focus became putting of all of the new and emerging technologies to work to bring patients the best possible standard of care.
Dr. McCullough and his staff are amazing with what I think should be award-winning Customer Service from initial walk-in to when you're leaving. I forget the dental hygienist's name but she walked me through every step of the way and went above and beyond in my opinion by making conversation surrounding my job, plans for the holidays, etc. even if it was only to kill the dead silence. Dr. McCullough came in the exam room and was very blunt and honest which I commend.
