Dear patients and families, I have some good news for you and for me, too. On September 22, 2014 I celebrated the 45th anniversary of my dental practice! I would like to personally thank you for your trust and confidence in permitting me to take care of your dental needs. Because I want to be certain that my patients continue to receive the best possible care, I am very pleased to announce the addition of my new Associate, Dr. Michael Zingalis, whom I believe possesses the highest qualifications and is extremely well skilled in all phases of dentistry. Dr. Zingalis grew up in Houston and graduated from the University of Texas in Austin and the University of Texas Health Science Center Houston Dental Branch (my school also). When his wife, Amy, became active with the US Army, Dr. Zingalis sold his family practice in Pasadena, Texas and spent four years in Central Texas at Ft. Hood. Now, his wife is at the tail end of her military commitment and they are here in San Antonio to stay. I feel very lucky that Dr. Zingalis is joining my practice and that he is now my dentist! He is a competent, articulate and careful practitioner and you will find him to be especially approachable and a good listener. As of October 1, 2014, I will be treating patients on Mondays & Tuesdays and Dr. Zingalis will be the treating dentist on Wednesdays & Thursdays. Like me, Dr. Zingalis prefers “old fashioned” personal relationships. After you meet, I know you will be pleased to be in such great hands! Dr. Zingalis and I look forward to our partnership and providing you with excellent dental care!
