Originally, I am from Fridley, Minnesota. My husband and Idecided to move out to the western suburbs to be closer to his hometown ofMedina.

I received mybachelors degree in biology and coaching minor from Gustavus Adolphus Collegein 2004. In 2016 the Minnesota Dental Association presented me with theNew Dentist Leadership Award for my commitment to the field of dentistry including all my volunteer efforts.
Sincecompleting dental school, I have both private practice and public healthexperience. I am comfortable treating patients of all ages! My path in general dentistry includes working for a children's clinic for 5 years, so I feel comfortable starting with your family right from the first tooth erupting! My advancedcoursework includes courses inoral surgery (removal of teeth), aesthetic procedures (veneers), root canals, and a mini-residency in pediatrics. Continuing my education has provided me the ability to provide the bestcare for my patients and I always look forward to keeping up to date on thelatest concepts in dentistry.

When it comes to going the Dentist, I have a lot of anxiety and fear after some horrible experiences as a kid and in my college years. Enough that I didn't see a dentist for 10 years. Dr Sarah and her staff were incredibly understanding of that and explained every step of the process, were honest and very well attuned to my anxiety and when I was feeling a lot of pain in one visit, they helped me through. On top of that, Dr Sarah and her staff have done the best quality work I have ever experienced from a dentist. They were also absolutely wonderful with my 8 and 6 year old daughters. There is no dentist that I would rather see and couldn't recommend enough to others - especially if you're like me when it comes to the dentist! Thank you for everything Lake Sarah Dental!

Had the pleasure of meeting Dr Sarah who answered our desperate call to take care of our elderly mothers toothache (regular dentist whom we also love, out of town). Dr Sarah's genuine concern, compassion & desire to heal was unprecedented. Her entire team was equally impressive. We are extremely grateful she answered our call & prayers.
