“If you judge people, you have no time to love them”
Meet the dentist - Dr Dorrough
Alex has lived in many places, including Utah, California, Oregon, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Connecticut, Australia, and New York.
He has spent his dental career training and focusing on treating individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities with compassion and understanding.
He loves jokes (especially dad jokes) traveling, camping, cooking, wood-working, wrestling, gardening, candle making, 3D printing, tailgating, electronics, anime, listening to records, guinea pigs, videogames, learning new hobbies, and watching CSI with his drop-dead gorgeous wife, Vicky.
Alex also spends one day a week teaching and seeing patients at Touro College of Dental Medicine, where he aims to inspire and equip the rising generation of student dentists to more effectively treat patients with I/DD.
