WE HAVE MORE THAN A GENERATION OF EXPERIENCE

Our office has been a staple in Bay Ridge for three generations.  It began by Dr. Henry P. Levy, when the Second World War ended and he returned home and was subsequently joined by Dr. David G. Olsen and Dr. Peter A. Costalos, both Bay Ridge natives. Though still on historic Doctor's Row since the very beginning, we are a progressive practice in a warm and renovated office, and we strive to deliver the best care available today to every patient.

URSZULA R., ORTHODONTIC ASSISTANT

I am originally from Poland where I earned my Master's Degree In Marketing and Management from the University of Krakow in 2000. After coming to America with my family, I was introduced to dentistry, when I was employed by a general dentist in Brooklyn and worked as a dental assistant for 8 years. It is my pleasure to be part of Dr. Costalos' team. I love being a part in perfecting patients' smiles, and I appreciate what the process entails.  I am also a professional Polish singer and have my own band.  On my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and watching my two daughters grow. 

COSTA P., CLINICAL COORDINATOR

Growing up in Bay Ridge in a family of six, I have come to a realization that giving a helping hand to others is very important.  Having received the Bachelor's Degree in psychology from the College of Staten Island, my main priority in life is to be of help to others, as others have helped me for over twenty years.  Working in Dr. Costalos' practice since 2008 has allowed me to accomplish this and to have great relationships with the team and our patients.
