To Dr. Babu, being a dentist means he has an endless opportunity to make positive changes in his patients' lives while educating and motivating them to take great care of themselves. He says that the team at Meadowbrook Dental Care knows how to bring out the best in each other no matter their role within the dental office, and he looks forward to working as a unit to help you and your loved ones get exactly what you need when you come to see us.
When he initially went to college, Dr. Babu had aspirations to become a cardiac physician. But, during his third year, a friend suggested that he volunteer at a dental office. At first, he was a little hesitant because he says he was very naïve about oral healthcare and dentistry as a career. Once he was actually in the dental office, however, he fell in love with it. He was drawn to the clinical aspect and liked the immediate gratification of being able to help a patient eat and smile again.
After graduating from the New York Institute of Technology, Dr. Babu earned his dental degree at the NYU College of Dentistry. He went on to complete a 2-year post-graduate residency, during which he served as chief resident. Today, he is an Invisalign Certified Provider and maintains active memberships in both the American Dental Association and New York State Dental Association.
Dr. Babu comes from a very large family that includes his parents, sister, aunts and uncles, as well as about 28 first cousins, all of whom he is very close with! Any chance he gets, he likes to swim to destress or paint to stimulate his creative mind. When he can, he enjoys traveling so he can explore new cultures and experience exciting foods. Many weekends, he dedicates himself to community service to help those who need it the most.
A couple of interesting facts about Dr. Babu: he once flew a plane, and back in college, he was the captain of a Bollywood dance team!
