UNDER CONSTRUCTION
After 43 years of practicing dentistry in Athens, Dr. David Hulsey has come to the difficult decision to step away from the dental chair. He is not, however, going to just walk away and leave without someone to take care of each patient’s dental needs.
For a couple of years, he has been searching for someone who shares the same passion for continuous learning and quality dentistry that he has had all of these years. After a long search, he has chosen Dr. Merissa Nelms to continue the leadership of the practice.
Five Points Family Dental is now open!
Its full website is coming soon!
About Dr. Merissa Nelms
Dr. Nelms is committed to the highest level of dental care and has continually pushed herself to grow and learn throughout her career. She began her career as an anaplastologist, a clinician specialized in crafting hyper-real facial prosthetics for cancer and trauma patients. Her passion for sharing her artistic talents with patients and her desire to further challenge herself inspired a career in dentistry. She graduated at the top of her class from University of California San Francisco (UCSF) School of Dentistry, earning awards in prosthodontics and was inducted into Omicron Kappa Upsilon, the national dental honor society.
Dr. Nelms relocated to Athens in 2021 to lay down roots with her husband, who is a biology professor at UGA- Go Dawgs! She makes it a priority to attend workshops and conferences regularly, eager to absorb the latest advancements in dental technology and techniques. She looks forward to implementing these advancements and continuing Dr. Hulsey’s legacy of dental excellence in Five Points.
