A Leader in Oral Healthcare
Dr. Dancy is a proud Meharrian graduating from the college in the Class of 1998.  Today he is a leading restorative and cosmetic dentist in Atlanta, Georgia. 



“Meharry afforded me the opportunity to learn the craft of dentistry from people who looked like me. I wake up every day loving what I do. In my career, I’ve learned the business of being a clinician who puts patients first—and I train others to do the same.”
Kevin Dancy, DDS
