History

Established in 1986.

Dr. McSurdy grew up in the Collegeville area and attended Perkiomen Valley high school. His parents advised him that Collegeville would be a great place for an orthodontist… 26 years later Dr. McSurdy is still practicing orthodontics in Collegeville and has opened a satellite office in Gilbertsville. The lesson from this story… sometimes it is wise to follow the advice of your parents!
