Dr. Marsha A. Gordon
Through Dr. Marsha Gordon’s dental training at the Medical College of Virginia’s School of Dentistry, she realized the joy she could bring her young patients after performing a routine cleaning and presenting them a prize for their efforts (sugar free, of course). As a result, Dr. Gordon has spent her entire career ensuring that every child receives specialized individual attention that ensures fundamental dental health.
Her dedication to patient care has not gone unnoticed both locally and nationally as “Lehigh Valley’s Select Dentist” and “TopDentist.” Dr. Gordon, furthermore, continues to hold the position of Diplomat of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry as well as a long-standing member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. In addition, Dr. Gordon is also the chairman of Pediatric Dentistry at Lehigh Valley Hospital Network.
Beyond her private practice experience, Dr. Gordon currently aids on numerous volunteer initiatives including: the Autism Walk & dental education in local area schools. Dr. Gordon was also recently offered two prestigious grants: (1) involves a collaboration with the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry with the Head Start of the Lehigh Valley; and (2) partners with the State of Pennsylvania Medical and Dental Community with a program entitled, Healthy Teeth/Healthy Children.
Dr. Gordon received her Bachelor’s degree from Goucher College, her Doctorate of Dental Sciences and her certification in Pediatric Dentistry from the Medical College of Virginia. Along with her husband, David, Dr. Gordon remains a long-time resident of Allentown with three grown children: Michael, Steven, and Harris (all of whom regularly brush their teeth twice a day after years of successful encouragement from their mother).

Dr. Raha Ghafurian
Dr. Raha Ghafurian was born and raised in Randolph, NJ. She attended the University of Pennsylvania where she received her bachelors in Biology, a Masters in higher education, and her doctorate in dentistry. In dental school, Dr. Ghafurian fell in love with the field of pediatrics, which brought her to the Yale-New Haven Hospital pediatric dental residency program. Dr. Ghafurian selected the field of pediatric dentistry because of the opportunity to build relationships with families, start children with a positive dental experience from a young age, and be able to provide the education to families to prevent dental disease before it happens.
For fun, Dr. Ghafurian loves to run, go hiking at Valley Green with her fiancé, and practice yoga. With two sisters (one of which is a twin!), she spends many weekends visiting her family in NY and NJ.
