Meet Dr. Wlodawsky
Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon Richmond & Midlothian
Ross N. Wlodawsky, D.D.S., was born in New York City, but spent a large portion of his childhood living in Latin America where he learned fluent Spanish as well as Italian. He spent his adolescent years in Washington, D.C., and graduated from St. Stephen’s High School in Alexandria, VA.
Dr. Wlodawsky attended the University of Richmond where he received a B.S. degree in Biology. During his senior year in college, Dr. Wlodawsky participated in a health profession elective where he was first exposed to the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery. Especially significant, is the fact that he spent this elective with the senior surgeons of Virginia Oral & Facial Surgery (Drs. Niamtu, Alexander, Keeney, Harris, Metzger, and Dymon at that time). He subsequently went on to attend dental school at VCU School of Dentistry. Among his many achievements in dental school, Dr. Wlodawsky attained the highest possible score on the National Dental Board Exam. Dr. Wlodawsky received numerous awards including induction into the honor societies of Phi Kappa Phi and Omicron Kappa Upsilon.
