I love being a dentist. Theres nothing more rewarding than helping a person achieve a healthy smile! No matter if its a small process or a situation requiring multiple procedures, we work together to restore oral health and improve the persons quality of life.
Ive been practicing for almost 15 years and treasure the relationships that have grown with my patients. I enjoy getting to know them, hearing their stories and watching families grow and change. Caring for everyone in a family, from the children through their great-grandparents, and helping each develop optimal dental health, is a great experience.
For me, dentistry is the perfect combination of science, technology, aesthetics, and relationships. I enjoy the challenge of caring for people with different clinical and personal concerns, diverse goals, and unique personalities. Every person is different, each procedure requires a custom approach, and every healthy, beautiful smile is wonderful!
At Poldek Family Dental, weve incorporated state-of-the-art technologies, including CAD/CAM and cone beam imaging, in the practice. Were high-tech, using leading-edge processes combined with the essential human touch.
I have lived in Schaumburg since 2003, however I am originally from Ancona, IL a small farming community in Central IL. I enjoying doing Cross Fit and you will often find me at the 5:30 am class! When not working, my priority is spending time with my wife Meghan and our two children, Katie and Tommy. Both of our children are in competitive sports, so our weekends are busy attending their volleyball tournaments and gymnastics meets. Our family loves to travel, we enjoy trying new cuisines and learning about different cultures!
I love working with people and have found no greater reward than helping transform a smile into one a person is proud to share! Ive been part of Poldek Family Dental since 2008 and appreciate all the wonderful people that Ive met and thefriendships that I have made.
As the office manager, I ensure we run smoothly so patients have stress-free visits.
