Dr. Jeffrey Turner has been practicing dentistry since 1990.  After graduating from the IU School of Dentistry, he joined the Air Force.  He was stationed at Boling Air Force Base, which is where he met his wife, Wendy.  They married in 1992.  After serving, he moved back to Indiana and practiced in Portage, but after a few years, wanted to return to his roots in South Bend, IN.  They have two adult children, Kyle and Matthew.  Dr. Turner’s parents were teachers, therefore he believes educating each patient on  “why” their dental health is important.  “I’d like to prevent you from having pain” is one of his mottos.  He cares about each and every patient as if they were a member of his family.  He enjoys telling a few “Dad Jokes,” but outside the office he enjoys spending time with his family and several dogs, swimming, biking, and water sports.
