Dr. John Hur is a board certified dual-degree trained Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon. He completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign where he graduated with honors, earning his bachelors of arts in Molecular and Cellular Biology. He continued his studies at the University of California, San Francisco School of Dentistry where he graduated among the top of his class. During his time at UCSF, he was involved in nationally recognized projects in the field of craniofacial development. Through these academic pursuits, he developed a profound interest in medicine and surgery.
Dr. Hur continued his post-doctoral work in New York, where he received his medical degree from Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons. He then completed a competitive Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery residency at Columbia University Medical Center/New York Presbyterian Hospital, which consistently ranks annually in the top 10 hospitals nationally by U.S News and World Report.
His training involved a fully integrated General Surgery preliminary internship with focused rotations in plastic/reconstructive surgery, trauma, anesthesia and maxillofacial oncologic surgery. He then concluded his training at NYP Hospital where he completed his intensive full scope oral and maxillofacial surgery training with an emphasis on CT guided implant and corrective jaw surgery.
Dr. Hur’s current practice reflects a foundation in full-scope training with an emphasis on orthognathic surgery (corrective jaw surgery) and complex dental implant surgery that utilizes CT guided skeletal mapping and surgical protocols.
