He believes that through patient education and proper oral care patients can reach their smile goals.
Born in Germany and raised in Dallas, Dr. Haggerty has always aspired to become a dentist.
He earned his bachelors in biology with a minor in chemistry from Prairie View A&M University.

While in Texas, Dr. Haggerty met his now wife, who was stationed there in the United States Navy. Soon they received orders to move to Virginia and where they started their new life together in Hampton Roads.
