History
Dr. Nicholas Ippolito started practicing Orthodontics after graduating Columbia University in downtown Brooklyn in the Williamsburg Savings Bank building. Dr. Robert Seminara joined him as an associate following his graduation from New York University. Dr. Seminara added a satellite office in Staten Island in the early 1970's. While at his general practice residency in Staten Island, Dr Michael Donato met Dr. Seminara, and was invited to join him in Staten Island and Brooklyn as an associate. Following graduation from his orthodontic program, Dr. Donato was made full partner in Robert Seminara PC. Six years later they moved the Staten Island office to its current location in Richmond Town, incorporated as Orthodontic Specialist PC, added a Metuchen New Jersey location in 2006, and still continue to practice in the same building in downtown Brooklyn that Dr. Ippolito began in over 75 years ago! We are proud of our long tradition of providing quality orthodontic treatment.
