Please join us for lunch & a special goodbye! As Dr. Becker steps into this new chapter, we want to take a moment to reflect on his incredible contributions to our institution. Dr. Becker's dedication over the years has left an indelible mark on both the patients he's cared for and the many colleagues and students he has mentored. He brought compassion, expertise, and integrity to every interaction, and in doing so, he set a standard of excellence for everyone around him. Beyond his clinical skills, his passion for education has shaped the minds and careers of countless Residents. Dr. Becker didn’t just teach Occlusion; he taught empathy, patience, and the art of truly listening—qualities that are the heart of great dental care. His presence here has been a gift, and though we will deeply miss seeing him in the clinic, we are forever grateful for the legacy he has left behind. On behalf of all of us, thank you Dr. Becker! “One of the most important things in life is to make sure you make a difference. Your impact is a positive impact on at least somebody.” -Dr. Irwin Becker
