Associate Dentist Lufkin, TX
Lufkin, TX: At Jordan Family Dental we are looking for an eager highly motivated associate dentist who would like to become a partner to lessen the day to day demands and to handle the overflow of excess patients. My goal is to slow down the next 5-10 yrs, so I would be capable to boost a future associates workload, while they build their own patient base. There is room for advanced dentistry like implant placement, periodontal surgeries, orthodontics, pediatrics and limited oral surgery. Our patients travel from out of town/state to utilize our services and our office is very high tech and utilizes up to date equipment. We take most insurances, but are not in network with any, and do not take medicaid. Associate must be able to provide all aspects of General Dentistry and be a licensed DDS or DMD.To view this practice in more detail and begin messaging with the practice owner directly please visit www.pattersonconnect.com or email resume to Shayne.derby@pattersondental.com
