Meet the Doctor
(Left) The First Two Generations of Dentists - Dentists Sol and Myron Leiman, (Right) 3rd Generation - Dentist Richard Leiman and Family
I am honored to follow in my father and grandfather's footsteps as a 3rd generation Dentist and NYU College of Dentistry graduate. Since 1984 I have been committed to continued education throughout my career. I attained my Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry in 1992. Having this additional degree means I have completed 500 hours of continuing education in various disciplines, learned the latest in cutting edge technology and passed a rigorous examination. Only 7 percent of general dentists receive this honor. Even after achieving this goal, a minimum of 25 hours of continuing education per year must be maintained which offers my patients the latest in dental care.
I have a warm, friendly rapport with all my patients. My conservative simplified approach to procedures that used to be complex allows you to remain comfortable and at ease throughout all your dental visits. You will be surrounded by an experienced, patient and helpful staff for all your needs from Dental to Insurance and beyond. All are approachable for questions, apprehensions or simply a chat about the latest book or movie! Patients come to our office from every corner of Westchester County and beyond.
I have been happily married to my loving wife Susan for 30 years and have four amazing children!
