Dr. Menendez enjoys interacting with his patients, helping to transform their smiles and seeing the great satisfaction that it brings. Dr. Menendez is intent on providing value to his patients, team members, and practice by continuously searching for the best technology and materials, taking continuing education courses, and evaluating where we can improve our collective daily experience. This entails making the necessary changes in a timely fashion based on feedback and several self-evaluating protocols we have in effect.
When he’s not in our office, Dr. Menendez enjoys exercising, playing pool, traveling, and fishing with his three children.
