Dr. Jeremy Sorhus is a native of the Pacific Northwest having spent most of his formative years in Oregon, and although Oregon was always home-base, his fathers’ career took him all over the world, and by the age of 12 was a bona-fide world traveler. He lived in Yemen for two years and spent considerable time in Europe and the Middle East. He has also spent several years in Central America – most notably in Nicaragua. He speaks fluent Spanish and was fluent in Arabic, although according to him, he has lost a great deal of that because there are few people to converse with in the US.
Following high school graduation in Philomath, Oregon, Dr. Sorhus attended Oregon State University and later transferred to Rick’s College to finish up an associate’s degree. Immediately after there, he transferred to Brigham Young University in Provo, UT and earned a BS in Geography with minors in Chemistry, Biology, and Humanities.
For post-graduate work Dr. Sorhus chose to go to Indiana University School of Dentistry in Indianapolis, IN where he graduated with several honors and awards and graduated with top marks in all his clinical boards. While in dental school, Dr. Sorhus also won several awards for dental research he did on teeth whitening, including earning the Dentsply Student Clinician of the year honors for the research.
After graduation from dental school, Dr. Sorhus immediately started private practice in Great Falls, MT and enjoyed a thriving practice there, and sold it after being in the Montana area for 7+ years. He has always maintained a curiosity for Alaska and used this opportunity to relocate up to this great state. He is a proud father of 6 beautiful children and enjoys spending time with them outdoors in the wilds of Alaska. He is particularly fond of snow machining, golf, and mountain biking up to a mountain lake to go fly-fishing.
