Why Did You Want to
Become a Dentist?
Dr. Wells’ dentist growing up, the late Dr. James T. Martin, was the one who inspired him. Dr. Martin treated him as well as his immediate and extended family, and Dr. Wells says he always felt cared for with him. Dr. Wells had tremendous respect for him both as a person as well as a professional, and he made the idea of treating patients compelling, which motivated Dr. Wells to follow in his footsteps.
Where Did You
Study Dentistry?
Originally from Mobile, Dr. Wells attended the University of Alabama Honors College before earning his dental degree at the University of Alabama School of Dentistry. During that time, he received the Quintessence Award for Achievement in Restorative Dentistry. He went on to complete an Advanced Education in General Dentistry at the UT Health School of Dentistry at Houston, where he was given both the Best Resident Award as well as the Critical Thinking Award in Treatment Planning. Since leaving school, he has completed over 300 hours of continuing education in various aspects of dentistry.
He also has memberships in the following organizations:

Outside of the Dental Office,
What Do You Like to Do?
Dr. Wells’ family, which consists of his father, mother, and younger sister, still live in Alabama, and they all enjoy visiting him in New York whenever they can. His biggest passion outside of dentistry is yoga, which he says he practices often to keep himself both fit and sane! He finds time to be artistic as well, as he enjoys creating ceramic pottery on the weekends. He is an avid music listener, having listened to over 700 hours of it last year alone (his phone kept track). He also enjoys entertaining, putting his southern hospitality on full display as he creates an evening where his friends and family can feel well taken care of.
