Dear Valued Patients,

I hope this note finds you in good spirits.  It is with mixed emotions that I announce my retirement from dentistry, effective April 28, 2026, after forty-seven fulfilling years in practice.  This has been a very difficult decision.  It marks the beginning of a new chapter in my life which I hope will be filled with family, fun, community service and new frontiers.  I wish I could bring all of you along on this new journey, but obviously that is not possible.

Being your dentist has brought me immense joy.  I have enjoyed not only helping you achieve and maintain your dental health but also forming lasting relationships with you and your families along the way.  Some of these relationships span three generations!  Your smiles have always inspired me.  I am truly humbled by the trust and confidence you have placed in me over the years.

As I transition into retirement, I want to assure you that our amazing team will continue to provide the high standard of care you deserve.  They are ready to assist you with any future dental needs and ensure your journey continues smoothly.  Many of you have known Dr. Ford for many years now and have first-hand knowledge of her attention to detail and passion for providing quality dental care.  Dr. Sara is newer to the practice, but I can assure you she will provide the same level of care and compassion you have come to expect from our office. 

Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your lives and for contributing so much to my life.  I will carry fond memories of our time together and wish you continued health and happiness in the years to come.  I hope to see many of you in the office over the next few months and look forward to future updates on the happenings in your lives.

Warm regards,

Steven H. Becker, DDS
