Dr. Joseph Samona will close the week’s Lunch and Learn series with a presentation on the deaf population and dentistry. The HSDM Community looks forward to welcoming Dr. Samona to share personal experiences and perspectives that will guide an important discussion around ways in which we can develop cultural dexterity in the practice of caring for individuals who are deaf and/or hard-of-hearing.

Dr. Samona is committed to keeping up-to-date with the latest technology and attends many hours of continuing education so he can provide high quality comprehensive care to his patients. When not in the office, Dr. Samona enjoys traveling, spending time with family, working out, playing sports and hiking.
