He enjoys his work as a hobby, and not just work, he loves being in the office and engaging with patients and his team. 

His favorite part of dentistry has to be placing implants, as he did a one-year program at Rutgers University focusing on just that. Dr. Abiad’s wife, Natalie, is also in dentistry as a pediatric dentist. They have one daughter, Sophia, and a son on the way.
