WHY HE WAS NOMINATED:

The Chicago native is trained in Botox treatment by the American Academy of Facial Esthetics to help his patients with TMJ and TMD relief. In addition, Dr. Broomhead owns and operates a dental implant center, where he places over 75 implants per week. He is also trained and certified in sedation dentistry.

SOMETHING PEOPLE DON’T KNOW:

“In June 2016, I participated in the Escape From Alcatraz Triathlon. The competition consisted of swimming 1.5 miles across the San Francisco Bay from Alcatraz Island to the Golden Gate Bridge, biking 18 miles through the hilly streets of San Francisco and running another eight miles. I was the No. 1 fundraiser for the foundation for this race.”
