Announcement!
Dear Patients/Friends,
Many of you are aware that I have been on a medical leave of absence since November 1, 2023. Dr. Timothy Liu, Dr. Charlton Ho and our wonderful team have been providing excellent care for our patients during this time. Although my health is greatly improved, after much counsel and prayer, it has been made clear to me that it’s time for me to retire. This is a bittersweet decision for me because I’ve enjoyed practicing dentistry so much.
As of July 19th, Dr. Timothy Liu will become my successor. I invited him to join our practice one year ago, with the intention that he would carry the practice into the future and continue offering the best possible care to our patients. Most of you have already met him over this past year. I recognize that God has a way of orchestrating the right people for the right time.
Dr. Liu earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Neurobiology and Physiology from University of Maryland College Park and his Doctorate of Dental Surgery from University of Maryland School of Dentistry in Baltimore. He also completed an Advanced Education in General Practice Residency (GPR) at WellSpan York Hospital in York, Pennsylvania. He is highly qualified in all aspects of restorative and cosmetic dentistry. He regularly participates in continuing education opportunities. Like myself, his approach to dental health is compassionate and conservative. Engaging in community service has allowed Dr. Liu to practice the values and beliefs that he holds close to his heart as a Christian.
Dr. Liu will be working with Dr. Ho and the same great team you are already used to seeing and I am confident that you will be in good hands!
It has been my joy to have been your friend and dentist over the past 42 years. Some of you have been with me for that entire length of time. That is truly amazing! I thank you for your loyalty, friendship and prayers. I am a better person from knowing each one of you.
With Warmest Regards,
Dr. Joe
Joseph P. Grieco, Jr., DDS, FAGD
