Dr. Jona Szakacs – Calgary Dentist
Born and raised in Calgary, Dr. Jona Szakacs discovered his calling in dentistry while working as a wildland firefighter for the government of Alberta. It was during one of those summers that he met a young man who had applied to dental school and who became his roommate for that season. After the summer, Dr. Szakacs shadowed dentists extensively and realized it was what he wanted to do for his career.
Dr. Szakacs completed his dental education at Western University in London, Ontario. He then returned to Alberta to complete a post graduate residency program at the University of Alberta where he received additional training in surgical procedures and the management of medically compromised patients.
Dr. Szakacs enjoys all aspects of general dentistry and loves building relationships with his patients. He knows that dental visits can be stressful, and if he can be a part of making his patients feel comfortable it gives him great satisfaction.
When he is not at work you can find him on his mountain bike, snowboard or split board with his wife Kelsie.
Dr. Szakacs enjoys all aspects of modern dentistry and welcomes ALL new patients to his dental practice!
