World’s Most Famous Dentist Giving Back
Dr. Bill Dorfman is a man of many talents, achievements, and passions whose early experiences and willingness to overcome obstacles has led him to create many projects with deep roots to his family and foundation. Driven by his belief that helping people achieve a great smile is vital in boosting their self-esteem and promoting a happy life, Dr. Dorfman has spent 40 years in the dental industry, creating some of the brightest smiles and happiest lives.
Relating his decision to become a dentist back to an unfortunate accident during his childhood, Dr. Dorfman explains that it was as if the “writing was on the wall.” As a result of an accident at age 3, Dorfman lost his upper front baby teeth and required multiple surgeries to ensure the proper development of his adult teeth. During his many subsequent visits, his curiosity about the profession grew.
His dental career began in 1983 after graduating from the University of the Pacific Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco as one of the youngest graduates ever to receive a doctorate degree. After completing a two-year residency program at a dental hospital in Lausanne, Switzerland, Dr. Dorfman moved back to the United States and began his own aesthetic and general dentistry practice in the Beverly Hills area.
Vitamin D: The Key to Health
It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the number of vitamins and supplements available on the market. Read the labels on a few of them, and you begin to get the impression that every single one is critical to your health! When caught in this avalanche of information, it can be challenging to determine which vitamins will be most helpful to integrate into your health routine.
How Can I Get the Right Amount of Vitamin D?
The most valuable piece of advice for determining the correct dosage of anything is to consult your doctor. Because vitamin D is fat-soluble, ingesting too much of it via supplementation could ultimately be harmful. What’s more, the symptoms of vitamin D toxicity don’t show up immediately. Instead, these symptoms only manifest after months or years. The safest course of action is to consume fewer than 100 micrograms per day before consulting your doctor.
An alternative to supplements is to look for vitamin D in your diet. The best foods for those looking to boost their vitamin D intake are salmon, canned tuna, egg yolks and orange juice.

Restoring the Art of the Human Body: An Interview with Dr. David Hartman
To paraphrase a well-known Greek myth, finding one’s calling is akin to finding one’s way out of the Minotaur’s labyrinth. Some use Daedalus’ ingenuity to spread their wings and reach for the skies. Others are blessed with Ariadne’s thread and find their way out in a heartbeat. But few of us, such as Dr. David Hartman, from the Fine Arts Skin and Laser practice in Dover, Ohio, traveled through every corner of the labyrinth to understand life in all its shapes and sizes and to study the one constant that never left Dr. Hartman’s side: his love and appreciation for art.
This hero traveled far and wide, across seas and continents, through scorching heat and dismal cold, to learn what type of art Apollo had destined him to cultivate Dr. Hartman has practiced numerous types of art, oil painting in college to a professional TV actor in New York City and Los Angeles, designing and building faux antique furniture collections for elite actors and producers in the Hollywood Hills to restoring antique oil paintings. However, after all his journeys, Dr. Hartman realized that his talents encompassed art in its purest form, without discrimination, and that his calling in life could help thousands of people self-actualize themselves and regain their self-confidence.
Now, he has the privilege of using his artistic mastery to bring the best aesthetic version of his patients to life in the form of natural-looking facelifts and beautiful mommy make-overs with living fat transfers for natural breast augmentations and revolumization of aging faces. For Dr. Hartman, each patient is a “canvas” that, with the right restoration techniques can regain the splendor and beauty of more youthful years.
Gynecology and Women’s Health: Dr. Rachel Spieldoch Shares What You Need to Know About It
The practice of gynecology and women’s health is highly personal for many women. It covers menstrual cycles, pregnancy, childbirth, gynecological cancers and treatments for gynecological issues. For many women, these are subjects they don’t easily share with their partners or even their doctors. As a physician specializing in gynecology and women’s health (and someone who truly understands it all), Dr. Rachel Spieldoch shared her knowledge and insights with Top Doctor Magazine on what to do if you’re feeling worried about any of these subjects.
Exploring Gynecology with Dr. Spieldoch
A board-certified gynecologist with more than 20 years of field experience, Dr. Spieldoch specializes in minimally invasive surgery, including advanced laparoscopic surgery, robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery and vaginal and pelvic floor restorative surgery. She has completed Advanced Masters training in daVinci® robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery and is a Center of Excellence Physician (COEMIG).
Dr. Spieldoch began her career in biochemical engineering and then branched into biochemistry and molecular biology before turning to medicine and gynecology. She has always shown care for people around her that many of her friends have firmly expected her to become a physician. After witnessing how much she could impact the health and happiness of women by offering her expertise, Dr. Spieldoch was inspired to specialize in gynecology.
With the variety and full scope of healthcare offered in obstetrics and gynecology (OB-GYN), Dr. Spieldoch felt the inclusivity of the specialization.
“With OB-GYN, you offer a continuity of care. You get surgeries, you do deliveries, treatments and post-operative care, so it is inclusive of just about every piece of medicine,” she said. Through training, Dr. Spieldoch realized that she had a more surgical aptitude; therefore, she ended up not doing the OB component and went into focusing on minimally invasive gynecologic surgery.
