| Dr. Roger
Northen is all about the passionate pursuit of excellent dental care.
No "dentist-in-a-box" managed care here, just top-notch professional
dental services. Dr. Northen grew up in Jacksonville Texas. He graduated
with honors from Abilene Christian University in 1976 and from the Baylor
College of Dentistry in 1979 where he earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery
degree. Dr. Northen established his family practice in Fort Collins in
1982. Through great dental care, repeat customers, and countless referrals
(THANK YOU!) Dr. Northen has built one of the most successful dental practice
in Northern Colorado.
Besides outstanding
dental care, Dr. Northen is passionate about three primary things: great
customer service, outdoor activities, and his family. Dr. Northen is
a certifiable fanatic about great customer service. As a consumer
Dr. Northen expects top-notch service and richly rewards those who provide
it. In his practice, Dr. Northen strives to provide that same outstanding
customer service to his patients. Let us show you how great our service
is. And if we fail to exceed your expectations-we are human after all-
be sure to let us know. We will make it right.
Dr. Northen is an
avid outdoorsman. He recently completed summiting ALL 54 of Colorado's
Rocky Mountain peaks of 14,000 feet or more! Besides climbing "14ers",
Dr. Northen loves hiking, bicycling, rock climbing, bird watching and
anything else he can do outdoors. In fact, Dr. Northen even proposed
to his wife, Nancy, while hanging from climbing ropes on the face of
a rock cliff above Boulder, CO.
Speaking of Nancy,
that's another of Dr. Northen's passions. He and Nancy are members of
Timberline Church in Fort Collins. They have traveled all around the
world, including dental mission trips to Africa, Peru, Vietnam, and
Guatemala to name a few. Dr. Northen has two grown children; Kobey is
a Homebuilder in Northern Colorado, and Chase has recently moved back
to Colorado from Florida and is working in Fort Collins. "Papa
Roger" and "Oma Nancy" are also the proud grandparents
to Madison, Kade, Reese, and Brienna, the apples of their eyes.
