A big congratulations to our very own Dr. Dougherty! He was recently selected as a Health Care Hero finalist among 165 nominees for Phoenix Business Journal’s 2015 awards. He is one of three finalists in the dental category.
Phoenix Business Journal along with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona, Abrazo Health Care and Delta Dental will present awards and recognize finalists at a breakfast held on August 20 at the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess. The event open to the public, will recognize the outstanding contributions that healthcare professionals make to our community.
Dr. Dougherty’s dedication to providing the best patient care possible begins with his commitment to continued education. He along with Dr. Adhikari and the rest of our staff frequently attend classes to learn the latest treatments, techniques and tools available. His dedication to patient care goes even further with his commitment and investment in new technology. In November of last year Artistic Dental was the first practice in Phoenix to introduce the Solea laser from Convergent Dental. This laser device allows Dr. Dougherty to fill cavities shot and drill-free and has many different capabilities for treating other issues related to oral health.
Dr. Dougherty has been dedicated to the advancement of Arizona dental healthcare since moving to the Valley in 1991. Early on he worked with Onsite Dental, traveling throughout Arizona to provide dental care to underprivileged children and families living on Indian reservations. In addition, he donates his time and services to Arizonans in need through organizations like St. Vincent de Paul and directly to Veterans. His goal as a dentist is to focus on educating patients and providing treatments that will help them achieve optimal overall health by integrating oral care with systemic health.
Dr. Dougherty goes that extra mile and his enthusiasm for dentistry and patient care is contagious. We are a strong team at Artistic Dental and we feed off his passion for patient care.
On Thursday, August 20th at the awards breakfast, we will be cheering for Dr. D when the Phoenix Business Journal presents the finalists their honors. As far as we are concerned, you are already a healthcare hero and we think your patients would agree.
