Dr. Pudritz is committed to educating his patients about their dental concerns and presenting them with a range of treatment options. His aim is to equip individuals with the knowledge they need to make well-informed decisions based on their budget and priorities.
Dr. Pudritz was born in Winnipeg and has lived in West Vancouver most of his life. He got his Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Doctor of Dental Medicine degrees at the University of British Columbia in 1975 and 1979. He enjoys learning and has been a long-time member of several Study Clubs, has been a clinical instructor at UBC for several years, and is a member of CARDP (Canadian Academy of Restorative Dentistry and Prosthodontics). He has been a member of several provincial dental college committees as well as chairing one of them.
In 2023 he sold his practice to Dr. Gillespie at North Shore Smile. Dr. Pudritz endeavours to explain to his patients their dental issues and options for treatment in order that they may make informed treatment choices within their budget and priorities.
He enjoys travelling with his family, skiing, mountain biking, reading, and listening to music.
You can find him at our North Vancouver location on Thursdays and most Fridays, and at our West Vancouver clinic on Wednesdays!
