Following graduation from UCLA School of Dentistry in 1996, Dr. Halloran completed his residency at University Medical Center here in Fresno. In 1997, he proudly joined his father, Dr. Richard Halloran, to carry on the caring tradition of this family practice established over 50 years ago. The children his father was seeing in his early career are now parents, and Dr. Halloran feels blessed to care for their children and watch them grow and develop.
Dr. Halloran believes that staying on the cutting-edge of dental technology and advances is the key to successful interactions with patients. In addition to this, his work with children brings him to the Children’s Hospital Central California where he performs full mouth rehabilitation on special needs patients. As a member of a multi-specialty Cleft Palate Board at Children’s Hospital, he serves with oral and maxillofacial surgeons, orthodontists, and neurosurgeons, evaluating the needs of cleft palate patients. He is committed to giving each patient a beautiful smile and the confidence they deserve.
