Donna J. Sanfilippo. MS, DDS, Receives Top Dentist Honor From CT Magazine

Dentist from Contemporary Dentistry Receives Recognition Second Year in a Row

Donna J. Sanfilippo, M.S., D.D.S, from Contemporary Dentistry in Groton, CT,  received the Top Dentist recognition from CT Magazine for the category General Dentistry. Dr. Sanfilippo received Top Dentist in  2011 and again for 2012.
 
Dr. Sanfilippo says, “Connecticut has a dedicated, passionate group of wonderful dental professionals. To be recognized by them in Connecticut Magazine is a great honor and makes me want to work even harder to provide quality care to my patients.”
 
Connecticut Magazine publishes the Top Dentists Guide annually, and polls every dentist licensed in the state of CT, asking them to recommend a dentist they would send a loved one for care to, in seven categories. The only way to make the list is to be recommended by those dentists who return those questionnaires. The magazine considers the survey to have a high response rate.
 
Dr. Sanfilippo was born in the Bronx, NY, later moving to Bergen County, NJ as a teenager. She graduated from Farleigh Dickson University with a B.S. degree in Biochemistry. She then earned her master’s in Human Anatomy and Physiology. She completed her dental degree at SUNY Stony Brook and has been practicing dentistry for 23 years, where she enjoys specializing in cosmetic dentistry. She and her husband, Ross, who is an oral maxillofacial surgeon in New London, live on a 23-acre farm in Salem with their four children.  Donna is one of only two state-certified DEP wildlife rehabilitators, specializing in the care of injured and orphaned white-tailed fawns. “I raise them until they’re 5 to 6 months of age, then slow-release them back into the wild,” she says.
 
Contemporary Dentistry is located in Groton, CT, and Dr. Sanfilippo shares her practice with two other dentists, Drs. John “Jack” Johnson and Mildred L. Goebel. The practice is remarkably high-tech with diagnostic equipment and TV monitors, but also has a cutting-edge reminder system that sends out reminders via text or emails several times before the appointment, starting one month out. They also have participated in a very unique reputation management system with requests for patient ratings via a feedback response system developed by a local marketing company in southeastern CT.
