Dr. Rob may not originally be from the Lou, but he is excited to get to know all of his new (Cardinals loving) patients! Dr. Rob grew up in Massachusetts, but has lived in all kinds of exciting places, from the Big Apple to the Nations Capitol. In his free time, you will likely catch Dr. Rob riding across the country on his bicycle or playing fetch at the park with his dog pal, Charlie. He loves the great outdoors and enjoys traveling all over the world. He is also ready to be a huge fan of St. Louis City SC!
I completed my undergraduate degree at Wofford College where I earned my bachelors of science in biology, then went to UNC School of Dentistry for my DDS. I love providing dental care to children in a fun and comfortable environment. I am honored to have a job where I can put a child at ease and make them feel safe in a situation where they may be scared.
I was born and raised in Louisiana, went to Millsaps College in Mississippi for undergrad, Midwestern University in Arizona for dental school, and Indiana University/Riley Hospital for Children for my residency. I love being able to provide dental care and education in a fun, friendly, and safe environment for children and adolescents. I have the best job in the whole world!
After attending dental school at SIU and my certificate in Pediatric Dentistry from the Childrens Medical Center, I began my career in the industry with my own practice back in 1986. I have always loved working with kids and helping them keep their smiles healthy ever since!
Kids who visit the dentist early grow up with healthier habits and feel more comfortable with their dentist! If your child has celebrated their first birthday, theyre ready for a visit to Gateway Little Smiles!

Great place! The doctor and assistant took their time walking my son through everything that was going to happen. I love how the doctor hid the needle from my sons eyesight to keep his fears down during the extractions. I love this place!!!

Top tier customer service from beginning to end. They worked extremely well with my most headstrong child and that alone is enough for me to make Gateway Little Smiles their dental home.

My kids like going to the dentist now since we started going to Gateway Little Smiles at the beginning of this year. They are always so friendly and nice. They are so great with children and make them feel so welcome. My kids love being able to lay back and have Netflix playing while they get their teeth cleaned. I highly recommend this dentist office to anyone who has children!

I just took my 4 and 5 year olds for an exam and X-rays today and left so happy to have found our new dentist! Dr InClan was amazing and her tech Lauren went above and beyond to make my girls comfortable and excited to be there! The receptionist was very helpful with all things scheduling, pricing and any other questions I had. Overall, an amazing place!

The staff here is so sweet and takes such good care of my 5 year old! She looks forward to coming in for her visits which is more than what we could ask for. The office is clean, up to date and it's always a breeze to schedule an appointment :)

Ashley was so gentle and friendly with my 19mo old for his very first cleaning! They were understaffed due to some unforeseen circumstances but you wouldn't be able to tell they were all so polite and not rushed. I didn't catch the Dr 's name but he was so super nice as well. The whole place is designed so well and really puts kids the center of the focus. We love it!!
