Dr. Morgan has been a dentist for more than 25 years here in Lake Mary and loves what he does. The people he has met and built relationships with, hold such a special place in his heart.

On a Personal Note
Dr. Morgan grew up just down the road in Winter Park and has lived in Lake Mary for 20 years. He met his wife Jill when attending dental school in South Carolina. They have a son, Reed, who is in law school at FSU, as well as a spoiled German Shepherd named Sasha. He comes from a large family, all of whom live in Central Florida.
His time outside the office is spent on the boat or at the beach, hosting cookouts, attending baseball games, traveling, and scuba diving. If there’s water, he's probably there.
