Dr. Herko’s passion for dentistry started at a young age when she worked as an orthodontist’s assistant during high school. She admired the doctor she worked under and began to dream of a career in public health. Driven and passionate, Dr. Herko followed her dream to New York Medical College, where she received a Master’s in Public Health. In 2006, she went on to graduate from New York University with her DDS.
One of Dr. Herko’s favorite things about practicing dentistry is that no day is the same. She’s always meeting new patients, listening to their stories, and understanding their unique histories and needs. For Dr. Herko, patients are what make the practice, and she loves being able to develop lasting relationships and help them maintain optimum dental health.
When Dr. Herko isn’t in the office, she’s spending time with her two children, husband, and her dog. As a mother herself, Dr. Herko understands the importance of positive dental health for the whole family, and when you’re at New Providence Dentistry, she’ll treat your family as an extension of her own.
