Dr. Lawrence Tam
Dr. Tam, a native-born Californian hailing from San Francisco, has been calling New York City home since 2001. He attended UCLA (Go Bruins!) for his Bachelor of Science in Microbiology/ Molecular Genetics and Business Administration. He was introduced to dentistry during his time at UCLA while volunteering to provide medical and dental care access in underserved communities within the Los Angeles area. He gave up the California sunshine to pursue his interest in dentistry at the NYU College of Dentistry where he obtained his Doctorate of Dental Surgery. From there, he chose to further his education and expertise in the field by completing a General Practice Residency at Montefiore Medical Center and then a specialty residency in Endodontics at NYU College of Dentistry.
During his pre-doctoral and post-doctoral training Dr. Tam was awarded many distinctions, presented lectures, taught endodontics on the NYUCD clinic floor, volunteered in dental-related services, participated in multiple research projects, and has published as the principal co-investigator in the Journal of Dental Education (http://www.jdentaled.org/content/72/3/352.full).
While Dr. Tam was busy completing his specialty training, the charms of New York City took hold and he fell in love with this vibrant, diverse, and unique metropolitan. There truly is no other city like NYC. In his free time enjoys basking in everything this city has to offer; whether that is a mind-blowing meal at any number of restaurants, a concert or musical, to a bike ride around Governors Island. Although he now calls New York City home, he remains loyal to his teams in the Bay Area, and you may catch him sporting a Warriors jersey or a pair of Bruins socks.
Over the years in private practice Dr. Tam has become a trusted referral for many dentists in the area since 2009 and thus established FiDi Endodontics in 2016. He loves dentistry and is always striving to further his knowledge of the field to provide the best treatment possible for his patients. He continues to provide stellar care, education, and compassion to his patients as well as maintaining communication and trusted relationships with referring doctors.
Dr. Tam is fluent in Cantonese and English.
