Our team

Meet Our Leadership

Charlotte Harbor Dental is guided by two people with complementary obsessions: clinical excellence in the operatory, and an experience worth returning to everywhere else.

Dr. Marianna Zadov, DDS, founder and lead dentist

Dr. Marianna Zadov, DDS

Founder and Lead Dentist

Dr. Zadov founded Charlotte Harbor Dental to practice the kind of dentistry she believes patients deserve: unhurried, transparent, and clinically rigorous. She leads the clinical team and personally oversees comprehensive exams, restorative treatment planning, and every cosmetic case the practice takes on.

Her commitment to patient care shows up in specifics rather than slogans — appointment times long enough to answer questions, written estimates before treatment, and a standing willingness to recommend monitoring over intervention when that is genuinely the better call.

Dr. Zadov invests continuously in advanced dentistry and continuing education across implant restoration, occlusion, periodontal therapy and cosmetic technique, and she holds the practice to the same standard. The result is a team that creates beautiful, healthy smiles designed to last decades, not seasons.

Simon Leizgold

Manager of Operations, Business Development, and Strategic Growth

Simon leads the business side of Charlotte Harbor Dental so the clinical team can stay focused on patients. His remit spans daily operations, practice growth, and the end-to-end patient experience — from how quickly a phone call is answered to how clearly a treatment estimate reads.

  • Daily operations
  • Practice growth
  • Patient experience
  • Marketing
  • Technology implementation
  • Business acquisitions
  • Strategic planning
  • Operational efficiency

Over his career Simon has helped build and expand multiple successful dental practices, guiding acquisitions, integrations and multi-location growth while keeping excellent patient service at the center of every decision. He is unusually skeptical of growth that comes at the cost of care quality — in his experience, the two only look like a trade-off when operations are poorly designed.

At Charlotte Harbor Dental he focuses on the systems patients feel most: scheduling that respects their time, transparent financial conversations, modern clinical technology implemented properly, and a long-term plan for the practice that prioritizes sustainable, responsible growth.
