Meet our wonderful team

Dr. Emily Markwood grew up in Bloomington, IL and studied at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. She received her Doctorate in Dental Medicine from Southern Illinois University School of Dental Medicine. She moved to the Champaign area and worked in public health before starting at this office. Her two golden retrievers are her “fur children” and she enjoys taking them on walks, participating in agility, and taking her therapy certified dog to nursing homes. She strives to make each patient feel comfortable throughout any dental procedures and understand the importance of good dental health. She cares that each patient trusts her and feels positive about their dental experience, and so she encourages patients to ask questions to feel informed about their treatment. Dentistry can be intimidating for many patients, and Dr. Emily hopes that her calm and welcoming nature can put her patients at ease.
