About Us

DR. KATYA

Dr. Ekaterina (Katya) Yankelevich graduated summa cum laude from Wright State University in 1996 with a Bachelor of Science degree. She went on to The Ohio State University College of Dentistry and received her D.D.S. degree in 2000. She stayed at OSU for the General Practice Residency, where in addition to treating medically and physically compromised patients, she gained experience in oral surgery, pediatric dentistry, endodontics, prosthodontics, anesthesiology and general medicine. In 2006, she purchased Village DentalCare in German Village and in April 2009 she moved her practice to a renovated facility in the burgeoning Short North/Victorian Village neighborhood. Dr. Katya takes numerous continuing education courses every year. She is constantly learning new techniques, procedures and materials to bring the best dentistry available in the world to her patients at Dennison Dental Care. Outside of the office, Dr. Katya enjoys exploring Columbus and ballroom dancing.
