William Townsend, DDS
Dr. Townsend searched throughout the northeast for the ideal location to open his dental practice and raise a family. Originally from the Catskill Mountains of N.Y., he fell in love with the beauty of Hunterdon County and has maintained the practice here since 1985. His goal has always been to make sure each patient who puts their trust in him gets the best possible and most appropriate care. Perhaps the greatest testament to the passion he puts into treating his dental patients is that two of his children became dentists and two of them also married dentists.
Dr. Townsend graduated with honors from S.U.N.Y at Binghamton with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. He earned his Doctorate in Dental Surgery form the State University of New York at Stony Brook School of Dental Medicine. Dr. Townsend graduated fourth in his call and was the recipient of numerous awards including the Academy of General Dentistry Award as the Outstanding Senior Dental Student and the Excellence in Oral Surgery Award. He continued his training at Stony Brook University Hospital by completing a General Practice Residency. He draws upon his nearly 40 years of dental experience and numerous continuing education courses to make sure his patients receive optimal care.
