On December 18, 2019, the Colonel James Wood II Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution presented a Bronze Good Citizenship Medal to Dr. Fred Broadhead, Front Royal Dentist. Dr. Broadhead was honored for his outstanding support of the community.

In 2013, he established the first free dental clinic in Warren County. He and his staff spend at least two Thursdays a month at the St. Luke’s Free Clinic providing dental care to those who need it most. He was St. Luke’s Volunteer of the Year in 2017 and along with his staff was presented with a volunteer appreciation plaque in 2018.

Dr. Broadhead has made it his mission to increase children’s oral health awareness in Warren County. He has developed and participated in various programs to reach his goal, including book donations to Samuel’s Library and Warren County public and private schools; Halloween oral care packages as part of Front Royal’s Halloween event; Warren County Backpack Buddy Program; participation in Samuels Public Library events and he created the area’s first annual dental art coloring contest.

Dr. Broadhead generously supports community initiatives such as Warren County Humane Society, Valley Health Annual Health Fair, Warren Coalition, Rotary, Warren County Parks and Recreation, Browntown Community Association, Skyline and Warren County High School Athletics and many other causes that enhance our community. It is noted that his dental practice has been recognized as the top dental practice in Warren County seven years in a row.
