A Personal Message From Dr. Holbrook: Welcome to our website!  I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself.  Through this site, you can learn a lot about our practice, now I'd like to tell …you a little about myself. I was born and raised in New Mexico.  Albuquerque is my hometown.  I graduated from Sandia High School and the University of New Mexico.  I attended Washington University School of Dental Medicine in St. Louis, MO, as one of two student scholars from the state of New Mexico. I always dreamed of practicing dentistry in Albuquerque and I have been living that dream since 1984.  I have a "dream team" that makes dentistry not only rewarding, but fun.  We attend classes for dental offices together and meet twice a month for staff meetings to share ideas and to keep abreast of the newest developments in dentistry. Dentistry is not a job to me, but my avocation.  I believe strongly in continuing education and attend numerous classes each year for general dentistry, implantology and esthetics.  I am happily married to a local attorney.  We have a daughter that is a delight and a challenge.  She is a Lobo, University of New Mexico of course, attending UNM on a presidential scholarship.  My parents also live in Albuquerque, and to make my family complete, I have two very spoiled dogs. I have a great practice, a terrific staff, a fantastic family and a wonderful life! In fact, my favorite movie is It's a Wonderful Life!  I am truly a fortunate man and I welcome you to our website. Warmest Regards, Steven E. Holbrook, D.M.D., M.A.G.D., D.A.B.O.I./I.D., F.A.A.I.D.
