Get To Know
Dr. Nicholas Christianson
Dr. Nicholas Christianson grew up in New Berlin, WI, and attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison for his undergraduate studies, where he met his wife, Jess. While finishing his degree in Bacteriology, his advisor, Jon Roll, suggested that he consider a career in dentistry. This advice inspired Dr. Christianson to apply to dental school, but not before gaining valuable experience working for three years at the UW Medical School in a pediatric asthma and allergy lab.
In 2006, Dr. Christianson earned his Bachelor of Science in Bacteriology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He then went on to complete his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree at Temple University School of Dentistry in 2013.
When he's not providing exceptional care to his patients, Dr. Christianson enjoys a variety of hobbies and activities. He loves riding his bike, playing with his four sons, and occasionally brewing or enjoying a beer. Dr. Christianson also enjoys reading the news, camping with his family, visiting national and state parks (particularly Yellowstone), grilling, cooking, washing dishes, and fishing with his sons.
