Dr. Josephs provides free dental treatment to Holocaust survivors in our community that are in financial need and need dental work, such as crowns, implants, extractions, dentures, and bone grafts. Since beginning his pro bono work, Dr. Josephs has helped nine survivors, each benefitting from upwards of $10,000 to $20,000 of donated work. He was inspired to give back after learning there are 12,000 Holocaust survivors living in Palm Beach County and 5,000 of them are living below the poverty line.

Josephs said he is also motivated to help the survivors with free dental work due to the recent rise in anti-Semitism and Holocaust deniers. "The needs of these survivors are very high, yet often they don't ask for help because of pride or fear. I decided immediately that if I could help these deserving individuals with the expensive and complicated dental work they desperately need to let them to live their final years with dignity, I was going to do that," Dr. Josephs said.
