Join MPDG in remembering Dr. Chad Corriveau
Dr. Chad Corriveau, our partner and friend, passed away on November 28, 2020 after a battle with pancreatic cancer.
Caring for his patients and forming friendships with them brought much fulfillment to Dr. Corriveau’s life. Prior to his passing, he insisted on personally selecting a successor, Dr. James Stoddard. He wrote a letter to his patients thanking them for trusting him with their care and introducing them to Dr. Stoddard.

Charles P.
Dr. Falkel is an outstanding practitioner. The procedure was remarkably easy and I felt absolutely no pain. Yesterday evening, at 9 PM, Dr. Falkel called me at home to make sure that I was doing fine. I think he goes well beyond what one would expect.
Kathleen G.
This staff of professionals works together beautifully. The tooth cleaning and examination glide from one to the other with no waiting. Angela, the angel who cleans teeth is thorough but gentle. I cannot recommend this group more!
