Dr. Stephen Novak, DMD
SPECIALTIES, TRAINING & AREAS OF PRACTICE: General Dentist.
EDUCATION: DDS. Graduated top 10% of his class at Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine (LECOM) School of Dental Medicine
PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIPS: American Dental Association. Florida Dental Association. Member of American Student Dental Association (ASDA)
SOME PROFESSIONAL HISTORY: I joined Shapiro immediately after dental school. Dr. Dari & Dr. Seth have an incredible amount of experience and a reputation of providing high-quality dentistry services in a family-oriented environment. So I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to gain experience working for the best dentists in south Florida at an office I’d love.
ON A PERSONAL NOTE: I was born missing two of my permanent teeth. And as a result, I’ve spent most of my life with a deep appreciation for dentistry and how it can positively impact someone’s life… That’s what initially led me to become a dentist.
When I’m not at the family dentistry practice, I’m usually outside with my wife & 2 wonderful sons. I enjoy playing tennis, swimming, camping, and skateboarding with our dog Louie. And although I haven’t left the US yet, travel is definitely on my to-do list.
GREATEST PROFESSIONAL ACHEIVEMENTS: I’m proud to have served as committee member for the “Miles for Smiles” fundraiser benefiting the Craniofacial Clinic at UF Shands. I also founded the Student Professionalism and Ethics Association (SPEA) at LECOM.
PROFESSIONAL GOALS: My goal is to always be a caring dentist, to listen to my patients’ needs, and to help them gain the confidence of having a smile they can be proud of. In the future I might choose a specialization, but for now I enjoy the challenge of performing a variety of procedures and helping my patients.
