Why Did You Want to Become a Dentist?
Dr. Rauchberg's father, Dr. Joel Rauchberg, started this dental office in 1965. His mother also worked there as a dental hygienist. Rauchberg Dental started out as a home dental office, which meant that he and his siblings were always around dentistry. One Sunday morning, a patient rang the doorbell because his daughter had accidentally chipped a front tooth on the edge of their pool. Since his mother wasn't home, Dr. Rauchberg became the default dental assistant. It was amazing to see how his father was able to keep the girl calm while also repairing her tooth. From that day on, he knew that dentistry would be a great profession to get involved in too – and he was right!
Where Did You Study Dentistry?
After graduating from the Temple University School of Dentistry, Dr. Rauchberg completed a one-year General Practice Residency {GPR) program at the Medical College of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. He has regularly pursued additional continuing education – more than 100 hours each year, in fact! This includes studying at the Spear Institute, undergoing training at the Dawson Academy, and completing the full continuum at the world-renowned Pankey Institute. He is currently a member of the American Dental Association, New Jersey Dental Association, Academy of General Dentistry, and American Academy of Dental Practice
Outside of the Dental Office, What Do You Like to Do?
Dr. Rauchberg and his late wife Maureen have three grown children: Jessica, who finished her PhD at McMaster University in Hamilton, ON and is now teaching as a professor at Seton Hall University; Jake is working as a bankruptcy lawyer in Wilmington, DE for Morris, Nichols, Arsht and Tunnell LLP; and Cameron will be graduating Vanderbilt Law in May. Away from dentistry, Dr. Rauchberg is a HUGE sports fan. He's always ready to cheer on the big local teams (Mets, Jets, Knicks, Red Bulls, etc) and loves Premier League Soccer, especially Manchester United. Some of his other hobbies include jogging, hiking, biking, cooking, and traveling with family and friends.
