Keerthi Golla, DDS, Pedodontist

I went into pediatric dentistry because I truly enjoy working with children and wanted to have the opportunity to have a positive influence on a child's future view of their oral health care. Coming from a fairly large family, I have been surrounded by lots of kids which enhanced my enthusiasm towards this field. My goal is to provide to the best of my ability individualized/comprehensive dental care for children ranging from infancy to adolescence in a friendly, supportive and caring environment.

I went to dental school at UMDNJ in NJ, did a GPR at University of Illinois and completed my pediatric dental residency training at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY. I have recently moved back to Illinois and currently practice here. I am an American Board Of Pediatric Dentistry Diplomate Candidate. As the field of Pediatric Dentistry changes, I keep current by attending the AAPD meetings, attending continuing education courses as well as reading current literature/guidelines.

In my free time I enjoy spending time with my wonderful family and friends, exploring the city; traveling and recently trying to learn to cook has been a big undertaking as well.
