Dr. Dorrough is still on a quest to fill the office walls with photographs of beautiful places in Utah. We hope you enjoy these pictures he took on a recent trip through southern Utah and northern Arizona. It was a dark sky weekend, with no moon, which allowed him to photograph the Milky Way galactic core...Read More

Our family spent 10 days in July driving a giant circle around Utah. I had always wanted to see the southeast corner of Utah, and although I grew up in Utah, I had never been to Moab, Arches or Canyonlands. I get a little excited when geology is the subject, and this trip was dreamy. Mark...Read More

Dr. Dorrough has always loved taking photos. Even when he was a teenager, he bought a very nice Canon A1 camera and Canon lens, and he took lots of photos. When I met him, he had that same camera from his teenage years, and it still looked brand new. He brought the camera on every...Read More

We frequently get asked about our building, especially about who designed it and who we hired to build it. The answer–The Lythgoes. Lane Lythgoe was our architect. When we met him, we were complete strangers, and now he is one of our dearest friends. It was very important to us hire a local architect who...Read More

2 years ago today we broke ground on our office building. So many miracles happened to make it possible, and it was a very happy day. Mark was still working in Oregon for the guys who bought his practice, and we had closed on the sale of our Oregon dental building just weeks before we...Read More

We are back in the office after taking a week off for Dr. Dorrough to go run the Boston Marathon. It was his fifth Boston, and very memorable. The weather on race day was awful, but 30,000 runners didn’t care and took to the streets to run 26.2 miles from Hopkinton to Boston. The cold,...Read More

That is my ringtone for when Mark calls me. Dave Loggins, “Please come to Boston….” Because the Boston Marathon is in the springtime, and we are so excited to go. Dr. Dorrough finished his last 20-mile training run on Saturday, and has started his 3-week taper before the Boston Marathon. It’s on Monday, April 16th...Read More

Several times a day, patients of all ages comment on how much they like the music we play. I also frequently hear patients humming and singing along to the songs. Everyone asks if it’s a Pandora station, or if not, where we get our playlist. The answer is that the playlist is 100% custom. There...Read More

One thing you should know about Dr. Dorrough is that he loves to run. He runs six mornings a week, generally running between 60 and 70 miles each week. Marathons are his favorite races, and he tries to run a spring and a fall marathon each year. Our family runs. Nobody else is quite as...Read More

We get asked almost daily, “What brought you to Heber?” It’s a pretty crazy story! After Mark finished dental school at Creighton University in 1996, we moved to the Portland area. We had 2 kids, and I was pregnant with #3 when we made Oregon our home. Mark was from Portland, and there were better...Read More
