About
One career, viewed at two scales.
Sucharu Ghosh, DDS, MPH, CPH, is an oral and maxillofacial surgery resident at NYC Health + Hospitals / Lincoln and a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Public Health.

His scholarship spans perioperative safety, oral and maxillofacial surgery utilization, tobacco and nicotine, substance use, and social determinants of oral health.
Clinical training
