About me
To Our Valued Patients,
My name is Dr. Robert Steljes—please call me Dr. Rob. I am honored to have the opportunity to continue caring for the patients of Lake Hickory Dental.
I was born in Wilmington, NC, and raised in Statesville. After graduating from West Iredell High School, I moved to Hickory, where I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Lenoir Rhyne University. I then continued my education at A.T. Still University, where I received my Doctorate in Dental Medicine (DMD).
Over the past couple of years, I have worked in the Troutman area, but I have always wanted to return to Hickory. I’m excited to return to Hickory, NC, providing high-quality dental care with experience, compassion, and advanced treatment options for the community. When I am not in the dental office, you can find me spending time with my family and enjoying the outdoors.
The practice has transitioned to Lake Hickory Dental, with a focus on providing a smooth and seamless experience for all patients. We remain in the same Hickory, NC location, and you’ll continue to see the trusted team you know and love.
We currently bill all insurances, and are contracted with Select Delta Dental plans. Our office also features advanced dental technology, including same-day crowns, 3D printing, and 3D X-rays, to provide precise, efficient, and high-quality dental care.
See you all soon!
