Chief of Dentistry
Kevin Buyck, DDS
Dr. Kevin Buyck spent several years in the banking and insurance fields, but made a career change and received his DDS from SUNY Buffalo in 1998.
He spent seven years as a staff dentist and director at an Article 28 clinic in Rochester before deciding to relocate to the Capital Region. A major factor in Dr. Buyck’s choice to join the staff at New Dimensions in Health Care in 2005 was the opportunity to work with many patients with disabilities, which he particularly enjoys. In June of 2006, he assumed duties of the Chief of Dentistry.
His co-workers praise Dr. Buyck for the caring and respectful manner in which he interacts with both patients and staff. We are grateful to have him leading the dental team at New Dimensions. Posted 032808
