WHY HE WAS NOMINATED:

The son of a pediatric dentist, Dr. Bresler is now CEO and president of one of Pennsylvania’s largest children’s practices, originally founded by his father more than 35 years ago.

PHILOSOPHY:

“My father taught me three important lessons: First, find out what you’re good at and become the best at it. Second, always put your patients’ needs first, and rewards will follow. Lastly, when climbing the ladder there are two ways to get to the top: You can either step on others along the way, or you can pull them up the rungs with you. Sharing your knowledge and experiences is the only way to truly be successful.”

SAGE ADVICE:

“Balance — work hard, but also play hard.”
