SUTTON DENTISTRY - Key Persons
Dr. Patel moved to Ocala in July 2023 to join Sutton Dentistry. She brings a fresh face to a well-established practice that has served the Ocala community for nearly 30 years.
Dr. Patel graduated from Creighton University Dental School in Omaha, Nebraska, along with Dr. Sutton. Creighton is one of the top dental schools in the country. While attending Creighton, Dr. Patel worked as a teacher's assistant, mentoring students on their journey through dentistry. She received her Bachelor's of Science degree in Psychology and Chemistry from the University of Minnesota-Duluth with distinction. She holds certifications in Botox injections for cosmetic and TMJ concerns.
Giving back to the community is a core value for Dr. Patel. When she is not providing dental care to patients, Dr. Patel volunteers her time to help those less fortunate with her professional expertise. New to the community, she looks forward to getting involved in the La Guadalupana Dental Clinic in Ocala, offering free dental care for those in need.
Growing up in the Midwest, Dr. Patel was raised in the small town of Brainerd, Minnesota where she grew up with her parents, sister and two parakeets. As a young girl, Dr. Patel has always had a passion for animals and recently has rescued a puppy, Nala.
A former Miss Teen Minnesota and near black-belt in Taekwondo, Dr. Patel now spends her free-time traveling, exercising and exploring Ocala. As a new resident of Ocala, she looks forward to expanding her dental clientele by becoming an active member of the community both personally and professionally.
