Who Cares For You in Our Office?

My name is Dr. Ronald Lumachi. I purchased this practice from Dr. Thomas G. Hanlon, Jr. when he retired in August of 1996. Dr. Hanlon practiced dentistry for almost 50 years, 30 of those years spent right here at this location, and it gives me great pleasure to be able to say that most of Dr. Hanlon's patients have decided to stay with us!

I graduated from St. John's University in 1988 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology before attending University of Maryland's Baltimore College of Dental Surgery. I finished my schooling in 1992 and returned to my native Brooklyn, New York, where I completed a general practice residency program at Maimonides Medical Center.

Upon completion of my training, I entered private practice as an associate with a group on Long Island, where I remained for 4 years.

I am a member of the American Dental Association , The New Jersey Dental Association, The Academy of General Dentistry , and the Union County Dental Society. I also serve as Editor of The Union County Dental Society Newsletter.

My name is Michele. I have worked in the dental field for over 15 years, initially as a Registered Dental Assistant, and now as Dr. Lumachi's Office Manager. He and I have worked together since 1995 in all aspects of patient care, but my role has expanded to include dealing with insurance companies, making financial arrangements, billing, controlling inventory and helping to keep the day to day operations of our dental office running smoothly.

My name is Sheila. I graduated from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey in May of 2005 with my Associate's Degree in Dental Hygiene.
