Education

  • Bachelor of Science in Biology (1980), University of Wisconsin Stevens Point, Stevens Point, Wisconsin
  • Doctor of Dental Surgery (1984), University of Minnesota School of Dentistry, Minneapolis, Minnesota

I went into dentistry because I enjoy working and interacting with all my patients, team members and specialists. I believe it’s critical that my patients are educated and informed and given multiple options so that when they are ready to proceed with any treatment needs, that they can choose the best treatment option that works best for them and their family.    

Outside of the office I enjoy golfing, hiking, DIY home improvement projects, woodworking and landscaping. I like to travel with my beautiful wife Sandra, spend time with my two sons, Austin and Brady, and take my dog Lola on walks.

I would always recommend Dr. Mark or Dr. Mike being that we were with them when they had their own practice since like 1999. They were always great with fixing my dental Issues through the years and very friendly. Now that they joined Park Dental and moved even farther away from where I live, it's not convenient for me, but for a friend or colleague that live in Burnsville/Savage/Prior Lake area, I would still highly recommend those guys!
