Endodontic Associates held a grand-opening May 22 to celebrate its North Oakland Office, 6770 Dixie Highway.
‘I think we’re really happy to be there (in Independence Township) because it’s certainly much more convenient for a lot of our patients,? said Dr. Carl Botvinick. ‘It’s closer to home, especially with the cost of travel these days. I think it makes a big difference with traffic and so forth.?
The grand-opening included a ribbon cutting, food, drinks, live band, and special guest, Detroit Tigers pitcher Nate Robertson, who signed autographs.
‘It’s good to see a successful business opening up in Independence Township,? said Dan Kelly, Independence Township trustee. ‘It was nice to see Dr. Botvinick and Dr. Jacobs give back to the community by bringing a Detroit Tiger to Independence Township.?
Botvinick along with Dr. Allan Jacobs staff and manage the North Oakland Office and Waterford Office. Botvinick joined EA in 1972 and Jacobs joined in 1980.
Endodontic Associates has nine offices across southeast Michigan. Patients come to them by referral.
‘Regular general dentists refer patients to us for root canals or for surgical procedures that have to do with infections in the jaw bone,? he said.
The North Oakland office is working on a part-time basis, and is trying to establish themselves full-time, said Botvinick.
‘The facility and the people involved are really terrific,? he said.
More than 235 dentists and staff attended.
