Summary
Dr. Eric Fugate, D.D.S.
University of TN, Memphis 2001 – Doctor of Dental Surgery
Carson Newman College 1997 – Bachelor of Arts
Powell High School (Knoxville) 1993
I am blessed with a wonderful family. My wife, Laura, and two children, Eva and Jack, are a tremendous joy in my life. They help me stay focused on what really matters.
I enjoy snow skiing, golfing, watching the volunteers compete in sports, and worshipping at our church, Vonore Baptist Church. This area continues to be a perfect fit for our family. I also have benefitted from short term mission trips to provide dental care in underserved areas. Venezuela, Honduras, and Ecuador have been recent sites.
After graduating from dental school Laura and I moved to Vonore and started this dental practice. We are blessed and continue to enjoy our lives here in Vonore. I enjoy dentistry and have found the patients in this area to be excellent in their desire for optimal dental care. Everyday has the potential to be rewarding for …our team. We get real satisfaction from helping people in need. From small nuisances to full blown emergencies we try our best to meet the needs of all who call on us. Whether the concern is pain oriented or a desire for a more esthetic appearance, we strive in excelling in the care we provide.
Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Dr. James Getchonis D.D.S.
My wife and I practiced as Enlightened Dentistry, PC for the last 20 years. As the name implies, we used all the latest technologies to bring our patients the best, most comfortable dental care. It was a natural fit for me to join Dr. Eric Fugate since he has the same caring, high tech approach to his practice.
I was born and raised in Hamilton, NY. Attended Cornell University - College of Arts & Sciences for three years. Graduated with honors from SUNY at Buffalo Dental School 1964. Served three years in Hawaii at US Army Tripler General Hospital. General practice of dentistry in Norwich, NY from 1967 to 2006. Semi retired to Tennessee in May 2006.
Residing at Rarity Bay with wife, Linda - a former occupational therapist, dental hygienist and office manager. Two married children and four granddaughters, ages 2 to 18. Enjoy golf, travel and belonging to the Rotary Club of Tellico Lake.
