Born and raised in southern Wisconsin, Dr. Garrison and her family are active, committed members of the Fort Atkinson community. After receiving her undergraduate and DDS degrees from Marquette University, Dr. Garrison and her husband, James, lived in southern Colorado for two years. While she thoroughly enjoyed her time at an all-children’s practice, Dr. Garrison knew that her heart was back closer to family in the Midwest.
Dr. Garrison loves practicing dentistry and caring for members of her community. She is also active in her church, Bethany Lutheran, in Fort Atkinson. She plays piano, clarinet, and has also started learning the cello! An outdoor enthusiast, she is looking forward to resuming activities which include running, cycling, competing in triathlons, and hiking. She also enjoys traveling, baking, puzzles, and trivia.
The Garrison Family – Today, Dr. Garrison and her husband live with their three young daughters and one son in Fort Atkinson. James Garrison works as the Director of Finance at Kingdom Workers.
Dr. Podoll received her Doctor of Dental Surgery from Marquette University School of Dentistry. After graduation she was offered the opportunity to complete a highly sought after dental residency program at the Veterans Hospital in Portland, OR. She was honored to have the opportunity to work with those who had served our country, while advancing her dental education, skills, and techniques beyond that of what is taught in dental school.
After her residency at the Veterans Hospital, Dr. Podoll relocated back to Wisconsin and began working as a Family Dentist in the Chippewa Valley. It was here that she met her loving husband, Curt, and the two of them had their first child. Eventually they decided to move back to her husband’s home town of Fort Atkinson, to raise their children around family they love.
Hi, my name is Curt and I am the Office Manager at Fort Family Dental and husband of our lovely dentist, Dr. Sara Podoll. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Healthcare Administration and have over 10 years of experience managing businesses in the medical field. I am a lifetime member of the American Association of Dental Office Management and earned my Fellow distinction within the organization in 2021.
I was born and raised in Fort Atkinson and interestingly enough, growing up, I was a patient of Fort Family Dental and the previous owner Dr. David Luisier. It has been on honor to take over this amazing dental practice with my wife and maintain its legacy of being a premier choice for dentistry within Fort Atkinson and the surrounding communities.
Hello, my name is Traci. I started with Fort Family Dental in the Spring of 2022 as the Office Coordinator. In my prior career I worked as a Medical Assistant before transitioning into the business side of healthcare/dentistry. The favorite part of my job is getting to know all the wonderful patients at our office and listening to the unique stories they share with me!
My husband and I currently live in Milton, WI. We have two children named Logan and Scarlett. In my spare time I enjoy camping, helping my daughter with her 4-H adventures, and spending time outdoors with my family.
