About Patel and Dornhecker Dentistry
Dr. Jesal A. Patel

In 1999, my husband and I decided to make Cincinnati our new hometown. We started practicing dentistry in our own private offices at the Bridgetown and Fairfield locations. As“Ohioans” we chose to build, equip, and decorate our offices using all local companies, craftsman, and suppliers. It is extremely important to us to support our local people and businesses. We strive to serve our patients with the best quality care we can provide. We are always eager to meet the wonderful people in the area and customize our care based on their personal needs. We believe every person is unique and should be treated individually and not as a number. Our goal has always been to create a personal relationship with each patient to establish trust and cater to the specific needs of each person and situation.
I continue to learn and follow the motto of my residency program, Enter to Learn, Go Forth to Serve. Since 1998 I have been a member of the American Dental Association, Ohio Dental Association, Academy of General Dentistry, Cincinnati Dental Association, Keely Dental Association(Butler County), Spear Dental Club, Seattle Study Club and various other local dental study groups. I was honored to be named a Top Dentist in Cincinnati by my colleagues.
Dr. Dornhecker and I enjoy spending time doing various local runs for charity, supporting our professional and non-professional sports teams, and spending time with our children. Our lives and heart are here in our state. O-H-I-O! Go Bucks!

Shortly after graduation, I married my college sweetheart, Dr. Jesal Patel. We were accepted for an intensive one-year residency at Toledo’s Medical College of Ohio. Through this position, I had the opportunity to serve as ear, nose, and throat resident for the hospital, treating the public, underprivileged children, and patients with compromised immune systems. The hospital’s attending doctors voted us Otolaryngology and Dental residents of the year!
We made our home in Cincinnati in 1999, and opened a private practice with offices in Bridgetown and Fairfield. We supported local industry in the construction of these facilities, using local builders, suppliers, and materials.
I have long been a strong advocate of preventive dentistry. I know that avoiding problems in the mouth saves the patient time, money, and discomfort, and promotes overall good health. I also work closely with the finest specialists in the area, to ensure healthy, attractive results for every patient I serve.
Attendance at continuing education classes helps me stay current in the fast-evolving field of dentistry. My patients simply deserve the benefits of advanced, comprehensive dental care. In addition to seminars and coursework, I maintain active membership in:
- American Dental Association
- Academy of General Dentistry
- Cincinnati Dental Society
- Keely Dental Society
