Dr Yvonne Schulke

Dr. Yvonne Schulke is a general dentist passionate about patient care and teamwork. She received her Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and her Doctorate of Dental Medicine degree from the College of Dental Medicine at Midwestern University. Dr. Yvonne lives locally in Kronenwetter with her husband, twins, and big ol’ fluffy Bernese mountain dog, Ripley. Dr. Yvonne's favorite aspect of her work is forming relationships with patients at all stages of life and understanding them as individuals. She believes understanding a patient's dental needs and desires often stems from recognizing their core values and character traits. When it comes to her team, Dr. Yvonne values the knowledge and skills each member contributes. She enjoys the laughter and humor shared with like-minded colleagues and appreciates the fun work environment they create while ensuring everyone provides the best dental care possible. From an early age, Dr. Yvonne knew she wanted to pursue a career in the medical field, although she initially wasn't sure which specific area to pursue. After exploring various options, she found her passion in dentistry despite fainting the first time she watched a root canal. Her interest and determination led her to love the artistry, engineering aspects, chemistry, and, most importantly, the patient connections in dentistry. Outside of her professional life, Dr. Yvonne enjoys getting lost in a good book, being outdoors, camping, snowmobiling, and spending time at the lake. She has a unique hobby of transforming ordinary, plain stainless steel tumblers into original creations using various mediums such as glitter, alcohol inks, paint, and vinyl, finished with epoxy. However, being a mom and spending time with her family is nearest and dearest to her heart. Dr. Yvonne is almost always humming or singing if there is music nearby. She has a background in choir and show choir (singing and dancing) and has performed at weddings and school events. It's common to find her humming in the office while working!
