Dr. Fitzgerald had a childhood dream of becoming an orthodontist and through his hard work, he has fulfilled his dream of caring for others. He attended the University of Oklahoma and received a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology with distinction. He then continued his education at the University of Oklahoma and completed a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree, a Master of Science degree, and a Certificate of Orthodontic Specialty degree, graduating with Omicron Kappa Upsilon honors.
Dr. Fitzgerald established his practice in 1990, as a specialist in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics for children and adults, in Norman, OK. Dr. Fitzgerald also has a second private practice in Ada, OK.
Dr. Fitzgerald has been in practice for more than 30 years, while also fulfilling the role of husband, parent, teacher, coach, volunteer, and friend. He loves just about everything associated with rivers, mountains, and oceans, and tries to spend as much time as possible with his family and friends.
We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive orthodontic care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding orthodontic experience every time you visit our practice.
I have worked for Dr. Fitzgerald for almost nine years. What I love most about my job is the reward of seeing the proud smiles on our patients faces when we remove their braces. I also love working in the lab and manufacturing retainers.
I work hands-on with our patients throughout all phases of their orthodontic treatment. I really enjoy meeting new people every day, and seeing the excitement on their faces when they start to see their smiles changing. Im so happy to be a part of this team; we all work so well together. Im excited to come to work every day to see my coworkers and our patients!
Anything that had to do with teeth was such a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. Working hands on with the patients, whether it is explaining the course of their treatment, how to care for their braces, or preventive hygiene is just so rewarding to me. I have been a part of Dr. Fitzgeralds team since May 2017.
My high school sweetheart, James, and I have been married for two years. We have two fur children, Lilian Grace and Marshall Finley. Theyre both our favorite type of wiggle butt breed, boxers! We love to work with Marshall on learning new signs, because he is deaf. I love to read, and watch movies (especially Marvel super hero movies; Captain America is my favorite). One of my newfound passions is cooking. I love to experiment with different styles or cuisine from all over the world. Traveling to the beach isnt so bad either!
I have been a part of the team since August 2017. I have the best of both worlds working in the front office and also assisting with our patients in our back office as well. I enjoy meeting every new patient and am always happy to the see the excitement on our patients face as they finish their treatment!
I enjoy spending my time at home with my two fur children Nova and Axle. I am from the Choctaw area and I grew up restoring classic cars and still love doing it in my free time. When I am not with my dogs or in the garage, you can find me happily spending time with my family and friends.
My husband Ron and I have a grown daughter named Lindsay. We spend much of our free time gardening and raising heritage breeds of poultry. I also enjoy volunteering for the Pontotoc County Fair and the Tulsa State Fair, as well as for various church activities.
When youre choosing an orthodontist for yourself or your family, you deserve the best! Dr. Jay Fitzgerald and our team are known for our years of experience, friendliness, and excellence in treatment. We understand each patient is a unique individual who deserves to be treated with the same care, understanding, and respectwe would give our own family.
