Our Mission

To provide our patients with an experience that will promote lifelong relationships built on compassion, trust, mutual respect, quality of work and exceptional patient care.

Proudly Serving Granville, OH Since 1976

Granville Smiles has been part of the local community since 1976, building lasting relationships with patients and families throughout the years. Many of our patients have been coming to this office for decades, and we are honored that they have continued to place their trust in our team through changes in leadership. 

While the faces may have changed over the years, our commitment remains the same: to get to know each patient, take the time to listen, and provide thoughtful, high-quality dentistry in a welcoming environment. We are proud to continue serving the community while honoring the history of this practice and looking forward to the years ahead.

Meet Dr. Patel

Hi! I’m Dr. Radhika Patel; a tooth-loving, outside-spending, wine-drinking native of southern Ohio. I spent my childhood in a small town but decided to move to the booming metropolis of Cleveland Ohio for college. After graduating from Case Western Reserve University, I went on to earn my dental degree from the University of Pittsburgh in 2015. While there, I simultaneously completed my Masters in Public Health. My husband, Doug, who I met in college, is also a dentist! We can’t talk enough about teeth in our family! He joined the US Navy following graduation and we moved to Washington D.C. where he furthered his education. Our experience in the military has taken us to so many beautiful places, some far and some close, but we knew we would make our way back to Ohio eventually.

Moving all over the country has given me the opportunity to serve a variety of populations from a multitude of educational, socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds. My dental skills were able to adapt and evolve. Dentistry itself has stayed relatively consistent, but the outside factors affecting the work have varied. I’ve not only learned the importance of being detail-oriented and perfecting my craft, but also the value of building healthy and long-lasting relationships with both my team and my patients. Establishing trust is imperative to having a healthy work environment that fosters dynamic growth, constant improvement, and allows me to provide the best dental care that I can.

I feel so incredibly fortunate to be back in my home state of Ohio where me, my husband, our two children; Griffin and Madeline, and our dog Spartacus can settle down and give back to the people that have shaped us so much. I look forward to meeting all of the people of this community and building lifelong relationships!

I am a member of the Ohio Dental Association, the American Dental Association, and am certified invisalign.

Haley Erwin

Patient Care Coordinator/ Dental Assistant

Hi I’m Haley, I’m a dental assistant at Granville smiles! I’ve known I wanted to be in the dental field since I was in junior high. After high school I took a year off from school to make sure this is really what I wanted to do, and I really love it. I finished dental assistant school in 2022 and have been doing this ever since! I grew up showing livestock and still enjoy working with livestock and help current 4-H members. I am very family oriented so in my free time I enjoy spending time with my family and babysitting my nephew and 2 nieces.
