About Dr. Urquhart

​Dr Urquhart is not your stereotypical oral surgeon.  Like many of his colleagues, Dr. U has an impressive resume of accomplishments and community service as an Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon.  Unlike many of them, however, Dr. U has a bedside manner that puts his patients so at ease that they actually enjoy their experience.  Click here to see what his patients have to say …

Dr. Urquhart received his Doctor of Dental Surgery in 1992 and has been a practicing oral maxillofacial surgeon for over 20 years in Colorado, the Great Lakes area, and in New Mexico since 2005.  In 2015, he opened his own practice, Urquhart Oral Surgery, where he has a staff of five and serves adult and adolescent patients as well as children.

Urquart, DDS, P.C.
