Dr. Jeff Summers

Compassionate. Kind. Honest. Fun. Trustworthy. Patient. Detailed. Driven.

These are just a few words patients use to describe Dr. Jeff Summers.

Originally from Anchorage, AK and a one-time Olympic hopeful in ice hockey, Dr. Summers is driven in the pursuit of fulfilling our mission to deliver unparalleled customer service in a friendly environment while providing the highest level of personalized orthodontic treatment to obtain exceptional results. Every step of his training, from Clemson University to the Medical University of SC, to the Medical College of GA has been in preparation to build an amazing orthodontic practice for all patients. Few others continue their pursuit as Dr. Summers to remain on the forefront of technology and advancements in orthodontics. He remains a Key Opinion Leader (KOL) for the orthodontic industry and a member of exclusive, prestigious groups via invitation only such as the Schulman Group and the Ormco Insiders. These distinctions are shared by approximately 100 members each worldwide, three of which are in SC, but no others in Greenville. These allow Dr. Summers to work alongside the brightest minds in the world and bring that education and technology home to the Upstate. Dr. Summers does Beta testing and FDA-approval documentation for the latest advancements and has been amongst the first in the world to introduce this technology to his patients. As such, he is sought-out lecturer and educator as a Damon System Champion. Dr. Summers is a member of all the local and regional dental and orthodontic societies and is a Fellow of the World Federation of Orthodontists.

He will always lead with his faith and you can be assured he will make all decisions based on the notion of what he would do if your family member were one of his own.
