Meet The Team - Fort Wayne, IN

Dr. Rorick was born and raised in Fort Wayne and remains deeply connected to the community he has long called home. He began his academic journey at Hillsdale College, earning a Bachelor of Science in Biology, before going on to complete his Ph.D. in genetics at the University of Iowa. During that time, his research was published in several respected journals, including the American Journal of Medical Genetics, Genetic Medicine, and Human Molecular Genetics. While he found research meaningful, Dr. Rorick ultimately felt called to a more personal, patient-centered path. He pursued that calling at the Indiana University School of Dentistry, where he earned his dental degree and graduated in the top third of his class. After dental school, Dr. Rorick proudly served in the United States Navy, where he provided dental care to service members and gained valuable experience practicing in a disciplined, mission-driven environment. His time in the Navy helped shape his commitment to excellence, attention to detail, and dedication to serving others—qualities he brings to his patients every day. In 2016, he earned Fellowship status with the Academy of General Dentistry—a distinction that reflects a strong commitment to continuing education and clinical excellence. He has completed over 500 hours of advanced training and continues to invest in learning to provide the highest level of care for his patients. Dr. Rorick has also been recognized for his service and leadership and values the opportunity to give back. He and his wife, Elizabeth, have three children and remain closely connected to the Fort Wayne community.
