Becoming an oral and maxillofacial surgeon is extremely arduous.  Oral and maxillofacial surgeons first must attend four years of college.  Then, four more years of schooling is necessary to obtain a doctoral degree.  After that, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon is trained for another four to six years in a hospital-based oral and maxillofacial surgery residency program.  An oral and maxillofacial surgeon spends a significant amount of time rotating through medically related fields such as internal medicine, general and trauma surgery, anesthesiology, otolaryngology and plastic and reconstructive surgery.  In addition, an OMS rotates through emergency medicine; critical care medicine, head and neck surgery and even neurosurgery.  A certificate to practice oral and maxillofacial surgery is awarded after successful completion of this type of residency program.   Dr. Falcone has also completed a yearlong fellowship in facial cosmetic and temporomandibular joint surgery after the completion of his residency. 

Our office is located in the Medical Arts Complex, 668 North Church Street, Suite 10, Hazleton, Pennsylvania, 18201.  It is a convenient location, across the street from the former Hazleton-St. Joseph's Medical Center.  It is accessible from all of the major highways in Northeast Pennsylvania.  (Click Here to Find Us)
