Meet Dr. David Shipper
I am a native of New York City and moved to the Upper West Side to join my father, Dr. Philip Shipper, in practice. My father and I practiced together until his retirement at the end of 1999. That same year, we were joined by my nephew, Dr. Howard Vogel. I have lived and practiced in the same neighborhood since the summer of 1976. I continue to enjoy practicing dentistry because I love being in the company of my patients. I take great pride in treating everyone with compassion, and with a passion for the services we provide. My main goal is to improve our patients' dental health, thereby contributing to their overall health.
