Kaufman Frank J DDS

Dental offices in downtown Paducah aren’t exactly scarce, but finding one with a Broadway address—Kaufman Frank J DDS—adds a certain downtown convenience. The practice sits at 1401 Broadway St # 4, a spot that’s easy to overlook if you’re not paying attention to the upper-floor suites. Unlike the chain clinics that dot the outskirts, this is a solo practitioner’s office, which some patients prefer for the consistency it suggests.

General dentistry covers a lot of ground, and this office handles the expected: cleanings, fillings, crowns, and the occasional emergency extraction. There’s no specialty branding here—just the standard preventative and restorative work that keeps most people’s teeth in working order. For those who need something beyond a routine checkup, the practice also offers basic cosmetic procedures like whitening, though it’s not advertised as a boutique smile-makeover studio.

Reaching the office is straightforward enough, but calling ahead is wise—(270) 442-4710 connects directly to the front desk. Downtown parking can be hit-or-miss, so some patients might opt to walk from nearby lots or street spaces. The building itself is unassuming, blending into the mix of professional offices and small businesses that line this stretch of Broadway.

If you’re mapping it out, the directions are simple enough—just watch for the suite number. Paducah’s downtown has its own rhythm, and a dentist’s office isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Broadway, but then again, that’s probably the point.
