Dr. Seth Freedman

Dr. Freedman earned his DDS degree at the prestigious University of Maryland School of Dentistry in 1995 following his graduation from the University of Missouri in 1991. After working as an associate in a number of practices in Illinois and Missouri, he finally joined Dr. Michael Heiland and the Discovery Dental Centers in 2005.
