Fun Facts About the Doc
Hear it straight from Dr. Allison.
What do you do outside the dental office?
“I am a native of Indiana, growing up in Noblesville. I have one brother, 2 half siblings, and my parents reside in suburbs of Indianapolis. I LOVE live music, concerts, traveling, all outdoor activities, cooking, spending time with family, and cheering on the Indianapolis Colts, Indiana Pacers, and Hoosier Basketball.”
Who is your personal hero?
“Malala Yousafzai – As the youngest Nobel Peace Prize recipient, she persevered against all odds to achieve her dream. I believe she has a lesson to teach all of us young or old, male or female, any gender, any race that whatever you put your mind to, you can achieve.”
What lessons from mom do you still live by?
“My mother taught me the lesson of persistence. I appreciate this more today than I think she would ever realize. My mom always pushed us to pursue what we enjoyed, and if it was something we didn’t enjoy, we had to ‘finish’ it before walking away. This lesson shaped who I am today in a multitude of ways, even with opening Park Pediatric Dentistry.”
What flavor of ice cream would you be?
“Rocky Road Ice Cream! Why? Because I like taking the road less traveled! I LOVE ADVENTURES!”
