Rockside Family Dental Care has been serving the Independence and surrounding communities since 1975.  Some of you may remember when our founding dentist, Richard L. Parsanko DDS, was seeing patients above the Pharmacy Shoppe, located in the Independence Square.  This office was a little 2 room office that was originally owned by Dr. Glenn Wilson.

Dr. Parsanko then moved to the building right next door to our current location in 1978. Dr. Dean Carmichael joined Dr. Parsanko in 1984 and spent his first year in that facility. The practice was then moved into our current building.

Dr. William Brosky joined Drs. Parsanko and Carmichael as an associate doctor in 1990 and then quickly became their partner.  They remained partners until November 2008 when Dr. Parsanko relocated to sunny Arizona.  Dr. Parsanko is doing well and prior to retiring had his own practice in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Dr. Paul Russ joined Rockside Family Dental Care in 2007 as an associate doctor.  Drs. Carmichael and Brosky welcomed Dr. Russ as a partner in 2008.

Dr. Jason P. Jeran joined our practice as an associate dentist in 2011 and was officially welcomed as a partner in 2015.

We are grateful to have Dr. Margaret Jane Gibson as part of our team since 2021 as an associate doctor.

This dynamic dental team looks forward to providing you the quality dentistry you desire.
