Dr. Jorey Parkhurst, DDS

Dr. Jorey E. Parkhurst is a native of Jamestown, NC. He earned his Bachelor's degree in biology from Southern College of Seventh Day Adventists in Chattanooga, Tennessee. He then returned to North Carolina and received his DDS (Doctor of Dental Surgery) from the UNC School of Dentistry in Chapel Hill in 1992.

His love of the coast was fostered while vacationing with his parents and brought him to southeastern North Carolina after dental school. Initially working as an associate dentist with Dr. John Madison in Shallotte, he was asked to join Dr. Jack Wilhelm and his growing family dental practice in Wilmington. After Dr. Wilhelm's retirement, he became senior partner of Parkhurst and Belisle Family Dentistry.

Dr. Parkhurst is a member of the American Dental Association, the North Carolina Dental Society, and a charter member of the Wilmington Spear Study Club. He has volunteered with the Tileston Dental Clinic of Saint Mary's Catholic Church and has served on the board and as a volunteer with the Brunswick Family Assistance Agency.

In his spare time he enjoys boating, golf, fishing, Tarheel basketball and spending quality time with his wife Laura and their dogs.
