Dr. Beck also volunteers monthly with Medical Teams International providing much needed dental services to Portland’s homeless and low income citizens. When he is away from his practice, he spends time with his family. In his leisure time he loves traveling, playing the trumpet and doing most anything outdoors.
Jacob R. Morrow, DMD, MPH
Dr. Jacob R. Morrow grew up in Billings, Montana and Mesa, Arizona. He attended Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, majoring in microbiology with a minor in chemistry. He then went on to earn a Masters degree in public health, with emphasis in public policy and management, from the University of Arizona in Tucson.

In addition to working in private practice, Dr. Morrow volunteers regularly doing public health dentistry with Medical Teams International, and eventually plans on teaching dental students at OHSU.
