About the Opportunity

Bear Brook Pediatric Dentistry is a leading, privately owned pediatric dental practice recognized for its clinical excellence and upscale, patient-centered care. As part of our continued growth and commitment to comprehensive family care, we are launching Bear Brook Lactation & Feeding Center, a new boutique specialty focused on advanced lactation and infant feeding support.
