After attending Wittenberg University for his undergraduate degree, Dr. Drabik received his Doctor of Dental Surgery at SUNY at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine. He completed his orthodontic certificate at Boston Universitys Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine. He is a proud member of the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Dental Honor Society and was the recipient of the Donald T. Kozlowski Memorial Award for Most Respected Senior Dental Student. Today, he is a part of the following organizations:
There is so much to like! To name a few, he enjoys interacting with his patients and staff members, getting to know everyone as individuals (not just a mouthful of teeth) over the course of treatment, and facilitating the valuable, lifelong changes they achieve.
When he is not busy at work, Dr. Drabik enjoys spending time with his loving, supportive, fun, and hardworking family he also gets to spend time with them at work. He and his wife, Kris, met in college and were married in his freshman year of dental school.

Dr. Peres knew from early on that she wanted to have a career where she could truly make a positive impact in peoples lives. While originally pursuing a degree in engineering in college, she decided that she wanted to focus on something more social and service based. Dentistry blends the analytical and creative sides of her personality so well, and orthodontics in particular turned out to be the ideal combination of science, art, and service!
Dr. Peres completed her undergraduate degree at the University of Rochester before pursuing her dental doctorate at the Ivy-League University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, where she graduated with honors in Radiological Sciences. She was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Honor Society as well. Later on, she returned to the University of Rochester Eastman Institute for Oral Health to achieve her certificate in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics. During this time, she was named a 2018 Charley Schulz Resident Scholar for her research on treating open bites in adult patients!
Dr. Peres fianc Nick works as a physician here in Rochester, and they are planning to get married in October of 2021! They have a Bernedoodle named Moose who keeps them on their toes. When she isnt busy caring for teeth, you can usually find her outside. She enjoys golfing, skiing, hiking, kayaking, and biking in particular. Some of her other favorite hobbies include exploring the fantastic restaurant and brewery scene in Rochester, keeping up with sports, traveling, and always looking out for a brand-new adventure.

We could not have been happier with Dr. Drabik and the staff at the Gates location. Costs and payment plans were discussed during our consultation as well as time frames. My daughter choose to go with the Invisalign and really had a great experience with it. Her teeth look amazing! The staff is friendly, extremely helpful and accommodating with school/sports/life schedules. We would (and have) highly recommended them.

Excellent texting and email! Able to get a new retainer, as my 9 year old Invisalign retainer had a hole and a crack. Transferring to Dr. Drabik was easy, via 'remote' communications and meeting the first time for a new retainer worked seamlessly!

Great location, great office and great orthodontist. I came in as a transfer from another state and finished my ortho with Dr. Drabik. My last 10 months of treatment were easy and affordable. Nice doctor.

Amazing staff and orthodontist. Never had a bad experience. Flexible scheduling. Recently I had a button fall off right before a trip and Dr. Drabik opened the office within the day while they were closed so I could get it fixed before I left the state. Cannot recommend enough.

I have visited many doctor offices but this doctor office is awesome . Dr Drabik and his team are excellent. My daughter and I both had a new brace 3 years ago at this office. Now we have new smiles. Since I had a new brace and new smiles, I feel more confidence about myself. I would recommend Dr Drabik to all my clients ( at Le Office Tax Service ) if anyone needs a new smile. Thanks Dr Drabik Tom Le Le Office Tax Service

My son loved Dr. Drabik all he could talk about was how cool his office was. I would highly recommend them. The office staff and assistants are friendly and amazing. Doesn't get any better than Dr. Drabik and his staff.

We have been consulting with Dr. Drabik for years regarding my daughters braces. He is very up front about all your options. He gives you his honest opinion and it feels like he has your family's best interest in mind. My daughter needs braces. He explained that we could do a two step process, getting braces at a younger age to help straighten some teeth out and then wait to get braces on again when she was older to correct all her other teeth that would grow in and correct her bite. He also explained that we could just wait and only do braces one time when all her adult teeth have come in. He explained the benefit to both and ultimately respected our decision with his guidance. His office and staff are very welcoming, I highly recommend Dr. Drabik for your orthodontic needs!
