Meet the Doctors
Kelly Spaulding (Elikofer), DDS
Known to her patients as “Dr. Kelly”
Dr. Kelly wants to erase your fears about going to the dentist.
By naming her practice after a favorite lake—her “happy place”—Dr. Kelly hopes to share the serenity she finds there with you. By listening to your concerns and taking the time to explain your options and why treatment is needed, Dr. Kelly and her team will help you get the results you desire. It is her special attention to detail and knack for putting patients at ease that set Dr. Kelly and Serenity Creek Dental Care apart from other practices.
Helping people feel better about their oral health is an important part of her practice. Non- judgmental, friendly, and without complicated “dental speak,” Dr. Kelly will always do the absolute best work possible to provide patients with treatment that she would accept for herself. Dr. Kelly often says, “I love giving people back their smiles.”
Dr. Kelly grew up in Brownsburg, IN, and graduated from Indiana University School of Dentistry (IUSD). During her time at IUSD, Dr. Kelly worked as a teaching assistant for both the human anatomy and the crown and bridge lab courses. She has always enjoyed teaching and hopes to bring the same learning atmosphere to her dental appointments.
Dr. Kelly believes that through patient education, each patient may get more out of their visit and will be able to make the best decision regarding their dental needs. During her free time, she enjoys boating, traveling, reading, and spending time with family and friends. She currently resides in Westfield, IN with her husband, Jon.
