Dr Doug Hartley

Hi I’m Dr. Doug Hartley. As the old saying goes, if you do something that you love, you’ll never work a day in your life. Dentistry is that something for me. It’s such a great profession because I can use art and science to make someone else healthier and more confident. I was born in Arcadia, Indiana and was a graduate of Hamilton Heights. I went on to graduate from Ball State University with a degree in biochemistry with honors, IUPUI earning a Master’s in Biology, and IU School of Dentistry in 2012 for my doctorate. I have completed continuing education courses directed at Invisalign, early intervention orthodontics for children that are developing malocclusions, surgical planning and prosthetic restoration of dental implants, photography for increased lab communication in esthetic dentistry, DOCS oral conscious sedation for the nervous dental patient, and smile design dentures. Continuing education is and always will be important to me.  My business partner and friend Dr. Blake Westra has titled me the CNO (Chief Nerd Officer) of our group.  I love learning about new procedures and techniques to ensure that we are abiding by the best practices in dentistry today. In my personal life, I married the love of my life, Janine, in 2014. She truly has been a patient partner through the start of my career, and I couldn’t have done it without her help. We have two adorable twin girls. Together, we like hiking with our two crazy chocolate labs, a good concert, and any binge-worthy show when it gets too cold to go outside. If you need anything, from complex restorative care to a simple dental check-up, my friendly team and I would love to have you as a patient!
