Our office was founded in 1970 by Dr. Carl DiGregorio with the vision of giving back to the wider Milford Community through quality dentistry. After serving in the United States Air Force, Dr. DiGregorio earned his undergraduate degree from Clark University and his Doctorate in Dental Surgery from New York University. Dr. Goodman joined the practice in 1984. Since partnering together they were devoted to delivering exceptional dental care to families in the Greater Milford area. Although Dr. DiGregorio retired in 2004 and Dr. Goodman in 2021, they still lead our practice with the honest, caring example they had set with a philosophy of treating their patients as a whole people beyond just their teeth. Dr. Goodman earned his undergraduate degree in chemistry from Clark University in Worcester, MA, where he graduated cum laude with departmental high honors. He then pursued his Doctorate of Dental Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine in Philadelphia, PA. After graduating, he completed an advanced general practice residency program at Worcester Memorial Hospital and the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester, MA. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated his commitment to lifelong learning by completing postgraduate courses at the Pankey Institute, Dawson Center for Advanced Dental Studies, and the Spear Institute. In addition to practicing advanced dentistry at Drs. Goodman, Ko, & Associates, he has taught as a faculty instructor at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in the Division of Operative and Prosthetic Dentistry. He was also an attending staff member at the Milford Regional Medical Center for thirty years. Today, Drs. DiGregorio and Goodman remain an important leaders of our practice and has left a legacy of providing Personalized, patient-centered dentistry to help all of our patients live healthier lives.
