Meet Dr. Rachel Ehlers

Dr. Rachel Ehlers grew up in Cary and graduated from Cary-Grove High School before heading up to school in Milwaukee. Fun fact: she was Miss Cary Runner-Up and Miss Congeniality in 2014! She graduated from Marquette University in 2019 with her bachelor’s in Biological Sciences. She then went on to Marquette Dental School and graduated with her Doctorate of Dental Surgery in 2023.

Throughout her schooling, she developed a strong foundation in comprehensive, patient-centered dental care. She gained experience treating patients of all ages and learned the importance of combining quality clinical care with compassion, understanding, and building meaningful relationships with patients. She believes every patient should feel confident and comfortable in their dental care.

Outside of the office, Dr. Ehlers enjoys spending time with her husband and their son. As a new family of three, they enjoy spending time with friends and family. Dr. Ehlers enjoys gardening, golf, and traveling. Dr. Ehlers is excited to be working in her hometown and to give back to the community that is so close to her heart.

“Dr. Patel is extremely professional and very friendly. He really gets to know you and your family and cares about your needs. The staff and dental hygienists are so wonderful and very gentle with your mouth. I just moved to Cary recently. I was worried about having a new dentist, but Cary Family Dental made us feel right at home. We are so thankful we found them!”
