Dear Patients and Friends:
It is with much enthusiasm that I inform you of some exciting news. After practicing full time for almost nine stimulating & enjoyable years of practice in Litchfield, I have decided to spend more leisure time with my family.
For the past few months, I have been searching for a colleague who would assume the responsibilities of my practice. The primary objective of my search was to find an individual who would carry on my practice philosophy of rendering the highest quality dentistry in a personal and caring manner.
Because I want to be certain that you continue to receive the best possible dental care, I have selected Dr. Alexandra Galante who I can personally recommend to assume the full-time dental responsibilities of my dental practice. Dr. Galante earned her Doctor of dental medicine degree at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. She then completed a general practice residency at Danbury Hospital. She teaches the next generation of hygienists at Tunxis community college in both clinical and didactic settings. Dr. Galante has practiced for the last 6 years in Waterbury, CT and is excited to continue her career in Litchfield, where she hopes to meet many new patients. When not creating beautiful smiles for her patients, she can be found with her husband and two daughters or on the beach where she grew up on Long Island, NY.
I have chosen Dr. Galante to join the dental practice because, in addition to her fine credentials & background, she seems to have the same dental philosophy, professionalism and chair-side manner as I do. Dr. Galante is extremely enthusiastic about her profession. She has assured me, that she will remain dedicated to the highest quality of treatment in the same caring & comfortable environment to which you have been accustomed. I am confident you will feel as comfortable with her providing your dental care, as you are with me. Dr. Galante will continue to earn your trust and referrals of family and friends.
In addition to Dr. Galante, my talented and dedicated staff of our office will also remain unchanged. Dr. Galante and I are extremely fortunate to be able to work with them. You are in great hands with Dr. Galante.
Please call us if you have any questions and if you would like to schedule an appointment.
Please join me in welcoming Dr. Galante into our dental family.
Sincerely,
Ji Hyun Kim, DDS
