Dr. Tandeep Malhotra, DDS
Dr. Malhotra completed his DDS from University at Buffalo, earning his degree with distinction. One of the most coveted and intense programs around the country, the DDS at Buffalo gave Dr. Malhotra the opportunity to work in an area facing a shortage of health professionals, where patients have little access to care. The unique challenges this presented prepared Dr. Malhotra to anticipate the different financial realities patients encounter, yet not compromising the quality of care they receive.
After his degree, Dr. Malhotra broadened his patient care experience by completing a two year residency program at Brookdale Hospital in Brooklyn, where he delivered dental care to patient with multiple medical conditions and special needs. Dr. Malhotra also engaged in research and teaching in the second year of residency, and currently continues his work as an attending doctor at the hospital training residents.
Committed to ensuring the best possible and most comprehensive care for his patients, Dr. Malhotra’s goal in his practice of dental medicine is also to ensure a pain and stress free experience for his patients. To this end, he has worked with superior practices and the leaders in the field of dentistry in Manhattan, where the doctors hold this philosophy close to their heart. Keeping himself abreast with advances in the field with continuing education courses, Dr. Malhotra looks forward to providing a quality service to all his patients.
