Hi! I am Dr. Heather Stamm, and I believe in the power of a smile. In fact, it was the power of my own smile that inspired me to become a dentist. After braces restored my bite and enhanced my smile as a child, I was inspired to provide the power of a smile to others. I believe in treating my patients with kindness and respect. I believe it is the little things that make my patients more comfortable about coming to the dentist.
I was born in Scottsdale, Arizona, and graduated from Arizona State University with a major in nutrition in 1998. I then attended Creighton Dental School and graduated with my Doctorate of Dental Surgery in 2002.
Outside of dentistry, I enjoy taking advantage of Colorados beautiful outdoors, including snowboarding, cycling, and hiking. I love gourmet cooking and spending time with my husband Eric and our two kids.
I fell in love with chiropractic and wellness as a patient while attending University of Arizona. I was on the dance team there and injured my back and could barely walk, so I finally decided to take a chance on chiropractic. I had been told as a child never to see a chiropractor because of my scoliosis by my Pediatric Orthopedic, so I was scared to try it. I wore a spinal brace from 5th grade to 9th grade and was living with daily back pain at that point. I felt immediate relief after my first chiropractic adjustment. I became a regular patient and could not believe how much it helped my mobility, pain, sleep and even immune function. I began working at the practice as the receptionist and saw firsthand it wasnt just me getting amazing results. I was inspired and changed my career path from dentistry to chiropractic.
I think having had chronic pain gives me a unique level of understanding and compassion for my patients and what they are going through. I also realize through my own healing journey that chiropractic is just one part of my tools for wellness. Nutrition, proper exercise and stress management have all become passions of mine. I love helping people see that they have the power to make positive changes in their own lives, to add vitality, quality and length to their lives.
Hello, my name is Dr. Sarah Forsberg! I look forward to getting to know you better, so first I will share a bit about myself with you. I was born and raised in Grand Rapids, Michigan so I was blessed to spend my childhood on the beaches of Lake Michigan. Dentistry brought me to Denver where now I play in the mountains and plan to stay.
I graduated from The University of Michigan with a bachelors degree in Neuroscience. My training continued in Cleveland, Ohio at the Case Western Reserve University where I obtained a Doctorate of Medicine in Dentistry. Throughout dental school, I served my peers as a Student Council Representative and the Student Body President. I spent my first year in Denver working towards a Certificate of General Practice Residency from Denver Health Medical Center, where I had prolific experience in trauma and emergency dentistry, oral surgery, pediatric dentistry, endodontics, and prosthodontics.
When not at the office, I will be outside working in my gardens, practicing yoga, hosting barbecues, walking dogs, or reading. I also love to see the world by traveling with my intrepid grandmother! She and my grandfather were small business owners that imparted an obligation to provide those you serve with the highest quality care and respect. I enjoy creating an environment where people feel encouraged to achieve optimal oral health and total body wellness. As your dentist, I am dedicated to providing you with a tailored experience here at Stamm Dental Wellness.
What brings me the most joy as a dentist is creating lasting, trusting relationships with my patients. I care deeply for those around me, and I strive to always treat patients and colleagues like family. You might hear me say I have the best job in the world! because I truly enjoy what I do. It is my privilege to help you achieve your health goals.
I grew up in Seattle, Washington where I received my Bachelors in Science from the University of Washington (Go Dawgs!). I then moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan, where I earned my Doctor of Dental Surgery at the University of Michigan. After 4 years in the Midwest, I realized how much I missed the mountains. I continued my clinical education with a General Practice Residency, a rigorous post-doctoral program at the University of Colorado Anschutz. Here I received advanced training in complex oral surgery, implant dentistry, endodontics, emergency medicine and trauma. Outside of the hospital, I have enjoyed training in CAD/CAM digital dentistry and smile design.
When I am not smiling around the office, I am smiling outdoors! My favorite activities are hiking, skiing, snowshoeing, and playing volleyball. I also love to cook for friends and (not) clean. My husband and I have a sweet & hilarious dog named Jimmy who joins us on all of our adventures.
