Jacob Foncea, Pediatric Dentistry
Faculty: Hans Reinemer
Born in Boston, MA, Jacob Foncea spent the majority of his life in the southeast. In 2018, he graduated from Samford University with a B.A. in English before moving to Memphis, TN to attend UTHSC’s College of Dentistry. During dental school, Jacob realized his passion for pediatric dentistry and ultimately decided to pursue it as a specialty. He considers himself extremely fortunate to have matched at his dream program at Primary Children's Hospital and is thrilled to live in Salt Lake City for residency. When he's not wearing scrubs, Jacob enjoys exercising, snowboarding, and being outdoors, but he is even more likely to be found reading a good book, walking his rescue dog, or spending quality time with his wife and one-year-old daughter.
