Dr. Stu started practicing dentistry after graduating from the University of Toronto in 1977. Since starting the dental practice in Newmarket in 1987, Stuart has seen many changes take place in the town. Dr. Stu first came to Newmarket in the mid 1960’s with his father who was the head of Radiology at the Newmarket Hospital. Newmarket was, at that time, a small sleepy town surrounded by farms.

Since that time Dr. Stu has watched Newmarket grow into a major centre, servicing the many small towns in the surrounding area.  The hospital has expanded to become the Southlake Regional Hospital and Cancer Centre.

"I opened my practice in Newmarket on Davis Drive, just east of the hospital in the Huron Heights plaza in 1987. We outgrew that space and moved to the 404 Town Centre in 1989. We needed more space again; in 1993 we relocated to our present location at Gorham and Leslie Street."

"My office has expanded to meet the dental needs of the growing community by adding specialists such as children’s dentists, an orthodontist, an oral surgeon and a dental anaesthesist."  Because of the trust Dr. Stu and has team has built up in his patients, the office continues to grow.

Since the 404 Dental Office has been open, Dr. Stu has seen thousands of patients of all ages. As an integral part of the community, he has sponsored many sports teams in Newmarket, Aurora, Bradford and Gwilliumbury Township.
