Here is his letter to patients:

Dear Patients, Family, and Friends,

 This summer, I am celebrating providing 15 years of dentistry in the community, and 32 years of being part of this area. The current viral pandemic has hurt our community and all of our pocketbooks, and it will continue to do so for quite a while to come.

In order to help your family and our community as a whole, we are lowering our prices immediately and across all procedural codes, by 25%. This means that coming to our office will be more affordable than ever.

We have changed our relationship with insurance so you can get even better care, especially amidst and after this COVID pandemic state crisis. You will be getting a letter from your insurance company that implies that you will need to find another dentist, in order to save cost. You have the right to remain with us. Because we have reduced our fees, switching to another office will not necessarily save you money. In general, insurance companies are taking advantage of this crisis, and I will not allow it with my patients, so I am directing the cost savings directly to you.

Lastly, if you are laid off, or find that your dental insurance premiums increase over the next year, please consider our in-house alternative to insurance, called our Veranda Inclusive Plan (VIP), which is more affordable than dental insurance for individuals and families alike:  https://www.verandadentistry.com/new-patients/vip-plan/
