As an orthodontist, my greatest reward is in knowing that my work has a profoundly positive impact on the lives of the people whom I treat. With this goal in mind, I understand very well the responsibility I have to provide my patients with only the most rewarding, beneficial and individualized care possible. Each day, I strive to uphold and prove my commitment to my patients health and happiness, and I am excited for the many years to come.
Education and Continuing Education For my entire academic career, I attended Ohio State University. There, I received an incredible education that set a solid foundation for me to become a highly skilled orthodontist. At the university, I completed my undergraduate degree in biology (summa cum laude), my Master of Science degree in craniofacial biology, my Doctor of Dental Surgery (summa cum laude) and my specialty training in orthodontics.
During my time in dental school and my residency, I worked very closely with many children at the Nationwide Childrens Hospital in the Craniofacial Abnormalities Clinic. These experiences provided valuable practice in treating patients with special needs and seeing to their utmost health and happiness.
Of course, my education does not stop with my formal academic training. I understand how important it is for my patients that I stay fully abreast of all the latest developments and trends within my field. For this reason, I dedicate much of my free time to continuing education courses and seminars. My patients benefit from this by receiving more efficient and effective treatments that give them better results.
Awards I am proud to have been chosen as one of Columbus Top Orthodontists from 2011 to 2016. This distinguished honor, voted on by general dentists in Columbus, is based on quality of service, patient comfort and excellent working relationships with referring dentists. In addition to this prestigious award, I was also named Best Westerville Orthodontist in 2015 and was additionally the recipient of the 2012 Commitment to Excellence award, given to me by the Downs Syndrome Association of Central Ohio for my work with patients with special needs.
Professional Affiliations By holding active memberships in a number of professional organizations, I am afforded a crucial opportunity to converse and share ideas with my professional colleagues. This is one of the most beneficial channels for continuing my education, and my memberships are integral to my practice.
Outside of the Office In my time away from the office, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Zhenia, and our sons, Jake, Jordan and Julian. Having spent my entire life in central Ohio, I am a huge Buckeye football and basketball fan. When I get the chance, I love playing golf, traveling, and visiting as many different baseball stadiums as I can.

From the very beginning, we have had the best experience here getting my 10yo daughter orthodontic treatment. You're always greeted with a smile (or more likely several smiles)! Everyone seems happy and like they genuinely enjoy their jobs and care about their patients. It's easy to make appointments, things run on time, communication is great. Most highly recommend!

This is like the kind of place you'd see in a movie or TV show, knowing in real life a Dr/Dentist office is never filled with this many nice people in an upbeat environment. But seriously, I was impressed! Clean, up to date, inviting, warm, bright colors, a well-oiled machine. Came to get me from the lobby at my exact appointment time and got me out early! Will be back.

I don't agree with how they treat patients I had to reschedule a few times due to my daughter being sick she's 2 and has a very weak immune system and they went from a 250 down payment to a 500 dollar down payment for cancelations and I feel that is totally unreasonable. When I tried reaching the manager about the situation and explain what had happened she was always out of the office and I was told she would return my calls it's been over a month and i still NEVER heard anything back from her. Very disappointed

Went for a braces consultation for my child. Everyone was very friendly and professional. This is our third place for consultations. Based on the price and what we are getting, plus the experience today, we've decided to go with them for our daughters braces!

Great experience. Dr. Jen was professional, caring, and took time to explain to patient and mom what would happen, how, showed and explained xrays. We will move ahead with braces at Dr. Shirck.
