Aurora's Favorite Dentist

My name is Dr. Meg Dinkel. Although my three siblings and I grew up all over (Go Navy!), Colorado has always been my family’s home base—both sets of my grandparents are from Colorado (Arvada and Golden). I studied at the University of Denver before graduating from the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine. I love spending quality time with my family. I enjoy long walks, thought-provoking podcasts, beautiful bike rides, paddle-boarding, and rollerblading. One of my greatest joys is dentistry. I love helping my patients reach their dental goals and maintaining healthy & happy smiles that last a lifetime! 

My name is Dr. Makenna Fopma. I am a Colorado native, originally from Broomfield, CO. I studied at the University of Sioux Falls completing a degree in Biology and playing collegiate volleyball before returning home to complete my DDS at the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine. My husband Kevin and I absolutely love living in this beautiful state. We enjoy walking our two huskies Rocky and Glacier, as well as attending Colorado Avalanche games on the regular. I love spending quality time with my family, soaking up Colorado sunshine, going to church, eating yummy food, and reading! Dentistry and transforming smiles is my passion. It brings me so much JOY to be able to serve and connect with my patients on a personal level and help them reach their dental goals!

My name is Dr. Katie Fay and I am from Kansas City. I moved to Denver seven years ago to attend the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine and decided to stay. I enjoy playing with my corgi, Lentil, hiking, reading, and practicing Spanish. I am passionate about helping people achieve their perfect smile and providing the highest quality of care to each and every patient.

My name is Dr. Isabel Schmidt, but you can call me Dr. Bell! I am a proud Kansas girl who moved to Colorado when I started dental school. I graduated from the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine and I am so excited to get started working at Aurora South! In my free time I enjoy playing sudoku, watching my favorite youtubers and going to concerts. Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to live a life of service. Dentistry has given me the perfect avenue to do so while creating a positive environment for my patients.

Hello! I'm Dr. Mario Morcos. I was born in the vibrant country of Egypt and moved to the United States when I was 9. While I grew up in Toledo, Ohio, I pursued my dental education at the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry. My love for the outdoors eventually brought me to Denver, Colorado, where I enjoy attending church, hiking, kayaking, cooking, baking, and playing volleyball and tennis. My true passion lies in helping my community achieve their dental goals, whether that means relieving pain, restoring the ability to enjoy food, or simply maintaining a healthy smile with regular check-ups. I'm always here to help and can't wait to meet you!
