After dental school Dr Wohlgemuth was commissioned into the Navy where he completed a residency program at the Naval Hospital Great Lakes and from there he was detailed to the USS George Washington where he performed a two year deployment in support of Operation Desert Shield. Upon separation from the Navy in 1998 he returned to Jacksonville where he met his wife, Mary, and they have 3 children Andrew, Meghan and Abbey.

Dr. Wohlgemuth makes it his goal for our office technology and care to stay at the forefront of the dental field.
Dr. Wohlgemuth’s spare time is invested heavily in his family, but when he is not taking his son to Lacrosse tournaments or watching his daughters dance recitals he tries to get in an occasional fishing trip to the skinny backwaters of the Intracoastal Waterway. Dr. Wohlgemuth maintains membership in multiple Dental organizations and remains up to date with the current philosophies of dental care by consistently attending numerous continuing education events per year.
