The community is invited to attend the ribbon cutting of Oak Orchard Health’s new dental office in Albion on Thursday, August 10, at 3 p.m. The event will include an open house so attendees can see the newly renovated facility at 362 South Main Street and meet the dental team, Karen Kinter CEO, and other community leaders including Congressman Joseph Morelle, Assemblyman Steve Hawley, and State Senator Robert Ortt.
The team at Oak Orchard Health (OOH) believes that National Health Center Week (August 6-12) is the perfect time to share with the community their new dental facility. Originally founded in 1973, OOH has grown to eleven health centers where one can receive medical, dental, and behavioral health services. Like many community health centers, OOH also helps patients get health insurance, provides translation and transportation services, offers a sliding fee discount program, and much more.
The new OOH Dental Center features seven exam rooms and dental services for adults and children. OOH has a full-time dentist, dental hygienist, and dental assistant ready to help patients. They participate with most insurances, including Medicaid, and offer a sliding fee discount scale.
“The lack of dental services in our region is detrimental to the total health of our patients. The Albion community has needed more dental care for some time and we are proud to have our new office opened. We continue to grow to meet the needs of our community and now serve more than 30,000 patients across Monroe, Orleans, Genesee, Steuben, and Wyoming Counties,” said Karen Kinter, CEO, Oak Orchard Health.
“We’re so proud of our new dental center and the qualified dental team there. You’re invited to the open house on August 10 at 3 p.m. to help us celebrate its opening. See the beautiful facility and meet our dentist, Jenna Rogge, DDS, and dental hygienist Miranda Betances, RDH, and me,” said Dr. Rachel Nozzi, Chief Dental Officer.
Dr. Rogge brings with her several years of dental experience working with families including children and seniors. She believes it’s very important to treat patients with respect and empathy while supporting them in making decisions about their health and course of treatment. She is a graduate of the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine where she received her Doctorate of Dental Surgery (DDS). Learn more about her at https://oakorchardhealth.org/rogge-dmd/.
