A New England native, Dr. Jason Curtis earned his Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Arizona in 1996, then graduated from the Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in 2001.
After returning home, Dr. Curtis started a beautiful family and cultivated a successful dental practice in Gorham, Maine. However, the allure of the Arizona desert never left him and the Curtis family eventually relocated to the Valley of the Sun. After discovering Arizona’s hidden gem, the family made the difficult decision to leave their thriving practice in Phoenix and resettle in the pines of Prescott.
