Growing up in the Marion / Cedar Rapids area, Dr. Deb followed in her father’s footsteps to become one of the best local dentists. She graduated with her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Iowa College of Dentistry in 1992.

Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens.

In her free time, Dr. Deb enjoys spending time with her kids, cooking for the family, being outdoors, and watching volleyball.
