Open letter of thanks and gratitude,
I am writing to let you know that I will be retiring at the end of December after more than forty years of being blessed with the greatest patient family in all of healthcare. When I started practicing in 1984, I had no idea how amazing the practice of dentistry would be. Sure, I knew that providing healthcare was what I had been trained to do. However, I had no idea how rewarding it would be to get to know you all as the patient family that you are. I cannot tell you how many times over the years I have reflected on how I have grown to profoundly appreciate and value the relationships we have been able to share. From the bottom of my heart, I offer you all a thank you for choosing our practice and enriching my life and the lives of our office team. It has been a journey I will miss as I move on to the next chapter!
My decision to retire has not been an easy one. However, I have found great comfort in knowing that Dr. Dorsch, Dr. Reidy, and our entire office team will continue to be there for you. They are and will continue to be the absolute best team of dental care providers in the entire area, if not the entire state. It is not easy to find the right personalities and professional relationships that can be so united in the culture our office carries and for this, I can thank our former partner Dr. Gerry Loewe, who has now passed on to the great retirement haven above. It is from his leadership, mentoring and wisdom that our office has continued to evolve while always maintaining a "patient first" philosophy. You are in great hands going forward!
My future plans will be family, community, travel, golf and reflecting on the fantastic memories I will cherish having had you all in my life.
Warmest regards and best wishes always,
