Dr. Potter earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree in 2011 at Virginia Commonwealth University’s School of Dentistry. He is a native Virginian, born in Roanoke and raised in Botetourt County on his family farm. To this day, he attributes his strong work ethic to growing up on the farm where he fondly remembers working alongside both his Father and Grandfather. He is a graduate of Lord Botetourt High School and of Virginia Tech, where he received his Bachelor of Science degree with a double major in Chemistry and Environmental Science. Go Hokies!
Upon graduation, Dr. Potter first worked as a Sales Representative in the Banking industry where he enjoyed interacting with a variety of people and made an introduction into the business world. It was, however, after losing several teeth in a skiing accident that he began volunteering at local dental clinics in his spare time and quickly found his passion in Dentistry.
Dr. Potter is dedicated to providing excellent comprehensive dental care, is board certified and skilled in all aspects of dentistry, and remains up to date in the latest technologies through continuing education courses. He is a member of the American Dental Association, the Virginia Dental Association, and the Academy of General Dentistry. He enjoys giving back to his community and has volunteered his time and services both locally and abroad.
Away from the office, you will rarely find him sitting still. Dr. Potter’s interests include hiking, traveling, photography, gardening and wood working. He also still enjoys helping his father on the family farm where he and his wife Amy have also been restoring his grandparent’s original farmhouse. They have been happily married for four years and reside in Charlottesville with their labradoodle, Pippin.
