Meet the Team

Dr. Suzie Stolarz has a simple philosophy: treat patients exactly the way you would treat your own family. One of her main goals for your visit is not only to provide quality care -- but also to help you relax and have fun during your time together!

A native of the Chicago area, Dr. Stolarz received her dental degree from Indiana University School of Dentistry (IUSD) in 1995. She is a member of the American Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, the American Prosthodontic Society, the Tennessee Dental Association and the Chicago Dental Society. She also volunteers at the Interfaith Dental Clinic in Nashville and gives back to the community by donating smile makeovers for a local non-profit organization.

Dr. Stolarz moved to Nashville in 2005. She is married with 5 fur kids and now proudly calls Tennessee home. In her spare time, Dr. Stolarz enjoys traveling -- and she is also a die-hard Rolling Stones fan (so don’t be surprised if you see her dancing in the office)!
