My name is Mikki and I have been a Registered Dental Hygienist for 16 years, all of which have been at this wonderful dental office. I have a great love for my job and the many patients that I get a chance to develop relationships with. Creating a clean and healthy mouth is so gratifying to me. Being able to work in a family environment with both patients and coworkers makes coming to work enjoyable. My home love is my Chihuahua, Milo, and my nephew Jaden who I have had the pleasure to help raise. I am very close to all my family members and cherish every moment I get to spend with them.
I've been practicing hygiene for 34 years of which 28 years I have worked at Hillcrest Family Dental. I enjoy being a hygienist, and it has afforded me the opportunity to provide quality dental care to patients coupled with job flexibility. I cherish the relationships I have developed with my patients-some third generations! Along with Rick, my husband of 32 years, we have 3 children: Mandy, Spencer, Anna, and 2 dogs, Cooper and Paisley. In my spare time I enjoy spending it with my family, golfing, snowmobiling, traveling, or heading up north to our family cottage in Westfield.
My name is Jessica and I am one of the hygienists at Hillcrest Family Dental. I graduated from Milwaukee Area Technical College in 2010 with a degree in dental hygiene. Helping people improve their oral health is one aspect I enjoy about being a dental hygienist. I also enjoy meeting new people and getting to know them on a personal level. When I am not working I like to travel, spend time with my family, and paint with acrylics.
I was born and raised in Waukesha Wisconsin. I have lived here my whole life and I love it. I attended Waukesha West High school and those were some of the best times of my life. I was a cheerleader for my freshman year, participated in choir, and was involved in drama club. I was on the costumes and makeup crew for all four years of high school for drama. I even helped run the department in my junior year, and was in charge of all of the quick changes and making sure everything was running smoothly during performances. It was a great opportunity that helped me to build leadership and time management skills. I went to UW Waukesha and WCTC for the nursing program, where I became a Certified Nurses Assistant. Shortly after, I decided to transfer to the dental assistant program which has changed my life. Some of my hobbies include camping, hiking, boating, crafting, going for long drives, hanging out with friends, going to the local theater, watching movies or TV shows, and going to cute coffee shops. Right now I am a certified nurses assistant part-time on Wednesdays and the weekends, while I am here at the office full time during the week. With both jobs, I make sure to put my 110% into my jobs to help my patients. It has shown me how to be responsible and caring. Work ethic is very important to me in everything I do.
Hi, I am Gabi and I am one of the dental assistants here at Hillcrest. I love being a dental assistant because I love talking with and meeting new people and being able to make relationships. Seeing someone in pain or embarrassed about their smile and leave the office a totally different person is one of the most fulfilling parts of the job. I went to WCTC for the dental hygiene program, then realized I loved assisting so I went to Oconomowoc Dental Assistant school. Some other hobbies include biking, shopping, going on walks with my boyfriend and 2 dogs Toby and Benelli, going on the boat, baking/cooking, doing home projects, and hanging out with friends and family. Seeing the self-confidence people gain after restoring their smile is so amazing, and I love that I am able to be part of that experience with them!
My name is Angela and I am the office manager. My career in dentistry began as a dental hygienist. I graduated from Milwaukee Area Technical College in 1998 with a degree in dental hygiene. After 14 years of practicing dental hygiene, I began to shift my focus to the front office and pursue my bachelors degree in Business Management and Leadership from Wisconsin Lutheran College. During my time at Wisconsin Lutheran College, I learned how much I enjoy the business aspect of dentistry. Helping people has always been a passion of mine and being able to help a person navigate through their insurance policy and receive benefits is very rewarding. My experience with the clinical side of dentistry is an asset to achieving effective communication with an insurance company to receive the best possible outcome for our patients. When I am not at the office I enjoy spending time with my family. We enjoy frequenting many of the local theaters. My 10-year-old daughter keeps me very busy with her activities and in the summer we like to spend much of our time on the water.
My name is Bonnie and I started as a patient when I was in college and over the years frequented the office with my five growing children. They loved coming to the dentist with the submarine window. I have always enjoyed working with people, so the transition to a part-time receptionist in this office was an easy decision. My new reduced hours allow me to spend more time with my three new grandchildren. Aside from spoiling them, I also enjoy scrapbooking, working on home projects, camping, and traveling. It would be my pleasure to meet you when you visit our office in the near future. Im confident youll enjoy the family-friendly office as much as I do!

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Doctor Ross and his whole team are so amazing and make you feel like family. I have severe dental anxiety and went through many dentists before I finally found Doctor Ross. He makes you feel very safe and comfortable at all times. You can tell how much he loves his job and puts everything he has into it. He's a perfectionist at what he does and is constantly trying to learn new things. He's always there for you when you need him. He has even come into the office after hours to care for me when I needed it. He gives his personal number to patients in case they need to contact him about things and always responds as soon as he can. I have truly never met a more caring medical professional. I will never go to another dentist again, because I would never be able to find someone better than Doctor Ross. I HIGHLY recommend him.

5 stars is not even high enough rating for Hillcrest Dental. The entire experience there is wonderful from the smiling faces greeting you as you walk in the door, the dental assistants who are the nicest and friendliest people and best of is Dr. Ross. I can't say enough good things about the quality of work he does, the thoroughness of everything no corners are being cut. I had some work done recently and it was so different from other dentists I've gone to. I also had a cleaning done by Micki and the process used was far superior from anything I've ever had, she did an incredible job. Anyone looking for a dentist 100% has to come to Hillcrest!

Hillcrest Family Dental is outstanding and I feel very fortunate that Dr. Oberschlake is my dentist. I broke a tooth recently and they fit me into the schedule very quickly. Extremely nervous myself about dental work and fillings, Dr. Oberschalke is so gentle and professional; I have never seen a more gentle dentist in all of my life. Talked me through everything and it was over in no time. So easy and pain-free; I was really impressed and relieved. He's also a perfectionist so the filling is perfect!! Thank you!!

DR. Ross is the best dentist in the State of Wisconsin. All of my visits have been absolutely great and painless. I've feared going to the dentist in the past, but Dr. Ross and his staff are true professionals and made me feel very comfortable. He goes over each procedure with me step by step, and actually tells me how I should feel while going through each step. As a matter of fact, I was so relaxed on my last procedure(crown prep) that I fell asleep. The ones that are good in their profession make it look easy. He is Great!

The entire Dental Team at Hillcrest are amazing, helpful, friendly, and appreciate their clients. Dr Ross is simply one of the BEST dentists, you'll feel fortunate to be under his care, I do. He delivers the highest quality work with genuine compassion. Before going to Dr Ross, I hated the dentist, really HATED it! Dr Ross and his entire team changed my mind. I appreciate Hillcrest Family Dental. You will too. All my best.

After having a root canal at another Dentist I continued to have issues. I was referred to your practice by a friend of mine and 10 minutes into my appointment, after you took a 3D picture of the tooth, cause was immediately determined. A big thank you to all of the professional individuals at Hillcrest Dental Regards, Mark

Everyone on the team was so, so kind! I live out of town, and needed a reliable place to send my disabled mother. They treated her wonderfully and called me every step of the way to confirm things were going well. I even received a call from the dentist himself. Unheard of! Couldn't be happier :-)

Dr. Ross Oberschlake made new dentures for my 82 year old mother. Her last pair were made in the 1980s so they were quite worn. Dr. Ross is great! He is friendly and kind and treated my mom respectfully. He was the perfect choice because he enjoys making dentures and he clearly has a gift for it. The process he followed was meticulous and careful, and the resulting dentures are beautiful! They make my mom look much younger and have rejuvenated her smile! Typically, patients with new dentures need to have a number of adjustments made to them because as they are worn the person will develop sore spots. After her first week with them, my mom needed only one small spot adjusted. Now, a week later, she's doing great and loves her new teeth! She hasn't developed any new sore spots and couldn't be happier. Thank you so much to Dr. Ross and his super friendly and helpful staff!

I can not say enough good things about dr Ross and his practice. They make you feel like family and they truly care about you. This is not a doctor who leaves his work behind at closing time. If you need him he will be there. I'm having horrible pain and I sent the office a message on a Sunday night figuring they would call me the next day when they got in. Nope. Dr Ross texted me at 10 o'clock on a Sunday Night to check on me. He's also coming in on his day off to see me. I've never heard of a doctor doing that! He will put you at ease, make you laugh, and he makes coming to the dentist almost a joy. My husband use to hate the dentist, and even he is converted thanks to dr Ross. I will never go anywhere else, and I recommend him to everyone. If you've ever had a bad dental experience, or if you have a fear of the dentist, that will be a thing of the past once you come here.

Why go anywhere else. Seriously.... Hillcrest was recommended by another Dentistry (really, I could end the review here). I came in for a consultation. Right off the bat, I knew this was going to be different from the other dentistry's I've visited. The staff was very friendly and genuine. Dr. Ross is an EXTREMELY proficient & personable doctor. The care and service I got this day caught me off-guard, because none of this happened at the other places (just x-rays). Like a little kid I raced home and, excitedly, told my wife that Dr. Ross is gonna give me my smile back. (I'm getting teary eyed just writing that part). In life we like to show off the things we buy, where we take our vacations or where we've been; where we shop; what our children do; etc. We naturally want to feel proud about the things involved in our lives. Hillcrest Family Dental is that...."I have season tickets, my kid gets straight A's, and I have Hillcrest Family Dental"....(mic drop). So thank you Hillcrest. Thank you Dr. Ross. There will be no hesitation in bragging this as a recommendation to anyone and everyone.
