Meet Dr. Steven Xue
For Dr. Xue, “SuperGP” is not a specialty title. It is a comprehensive way of practicing: diagnose broadly, plan carefully, treat within demonstrated expertise, and coordinate with specialists whenever that serves the patient better.
That philosophy grew through decades of clinical care and teaching. Over the past six years, Dr. Xue and Dr. Jim Zhang have helped train Chinese-speaking dentists in comprehensive implant care, including three live-patient programs at UFM in Guatemala and education at NYU.
