Dr. Jeffrey H. Berkowitz, DDS

I grew up in Utica, NY where my dad was a general dentist. My dad truly enjoyed his profession. As a kid, I spent a lot of time in his office, a small but warm professional space where staff and patients were treated like family.

Looking forward to my own professional career, I wanted to build onto my dad’s experience. Joining a group was the key. Group practice at Timberlane Adult Dentistry and Periodontics offers an unprecedented level of collaboration. Having a team of  general dentists and periodontists all under one roof dramatically improves our communication and efficiency. This is a tremendous convenience that ultimately leads to great outcomes and happy patients. 

Like my dad, I enjoy going to work every day. I like talking to my patients and seeing how I can help. Everyone has a unique story and set of challenges. My team and I particularly enjoy helping patients manage their dental anxiety. Many of our patients have avoided dental care for years due to fear. It is gratifying when we are able to help these patients work through their anxiety and restore their dental health.
