ACTIVE DENTAL - Key Persons

My name is Dr. Dominic DiRusso and I am excited to join the Active Dental family! I was born in Dallas, spent my childhood in Michigan, and returned to Dallas where my family and I call home. I earned my undergraduate education at The University of Texas at Dallas and my Doctorate of Dental Surgery at The University of Texas School of Dentistry at Houston.

Hello! My name is Dr. Kalpesh Patel. I was raised in Texarkana and am a proud homegrown Texan as there was never any doubt that I would make Dallas my home. I invite you and your family to come and experience a better dental office! I look forward to meeting you soon.

Hi! I'm Dr. Shivam Patel, DDS (AKA: Dr. Silver). Raised in Weatherford Tx after moving from California when I was still in elementary school, I proudly call myself a Texan today. From then to now, I've always been a nerd. And proud of it! It's actually how I got the name "Dr. Silver." As a kid, and still to this day, reading for pleasure was my favorite pasttime. That never stopped me from competing against my friends in basketball, footraces, or countless other physical activities and coming in 2nd place more often than not. Hence the name. "Never Gold, but always Silver." Two decades later and I was able to add the "Dr." part to that nickname.
