Dr. Jose Gil
“The most valuable thing about my work is the opportunity to provide individuals with a truly positive experience while doing something that often carries a negative stigma. If I can change someone’s perception about the importance of oral health, if I can allay someone’s dental anxiety or fear, if I can help restore someone’s confidence in their appearance, then I know I’m making the differences I wish to make.”

Personal Life
Dr. Gil grew up in Port Charlotte, along the southwest coast of Florida. He moved to Boston, MA when he was 18 and spent the next eight years there, studying and enjoying one of America’s greatest cities. After completing a General Practice Residency, Dr. Gil and his family moved to Macungie and couldn’t be happier about their decision!
Julee, Dr. Gil’s wife, is a practicing Board Certified Endodontist. They have a son, Evan, a daughter, Ella, and a boxer pup, Reagan.
When not caring for patients, Dr. Gil loves time with his family; they take advantage of the restaurants and array of seasonal activities in the Lehigh Valley. He enjoys working out and maintains a healthy lifestyle, as well. Dr. Gil’s favorite pastime is playing piano, which he has done for nearly 20 years, and he is an avid Classical and Jazz listener. He also loves sports, and is a particularly avid NBA fan.
