A graduate of the University of Minnesota Dental School, Dr. Chad continues his training through post-graduate courses, with special focus on periodontics, implants, endodontics, adhesion/bonding and orthodontics. He was one of the youngest doctors nationwide to complete the intensive and demanding post-graduate continuum on cosmetic and reconstructive dentistry at the University of the Pacific in San Francisco. He has also completed the requirements for certification in treating patients with dental phobia, or patient's fear of dentistry. Chad is currently pursuing additional training through the prestigious LVI Program.

Dr. Chad is passionate about serving others in the community. He has initiated a campaign to provide mouthguards to local athletes, and partnered with "Missing Children Minnesota" to offer "Toothprints," a means of collecting vital identification information for area children. He regularly donates his dental services at the Uptown Community Clinic through its Neighborhood Involvement Program, has participated in the American Dental Association's "Give Back A Smile" for victims of domestic abuse and the "Give Kids a Smile" campaign to deliver dental services to special-needs families, and offers complimentary dental care for adults with disabilities through DDS, Donated Dental Services. Chad is also a board member of Rotary International and has served as the president and director for the student exchange program for his local chapter.
