Dr. Chae grew up in Northeast Ohio where he immigrated with his family from Seoul, S. Korea at the age of 4.  After his undergraduate studies at Northwestern University, he received his dental degree (DDS) from the Ohio State University College of Dentistry.  He then continued his education at the University of Washington School of Dentistry completing a residency in Hospital Dentistry (GPR).  Dr. Chae furthered his education at Boston University Goldman School of Dental Medicine obtaining a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies in Endodontics (2001).  

 

As an Endodontist since 2001, he had the fortunate experience of practicing in many different office settings.   Through his experiences, specifically, in both large multispecialty and endodontic group practices, he realized he wanted to create a more relaxed, patient centric environment.  Our practice is focused on achieving the highest level of care and an enjoyable experience for our patients.
