Dr. Robert A Kerr

Robert A. Kerr, DDS
Dr. Robert A. Kerr earned his D.D.S. degree from Emory University in 1979, and prior to that had attained a B.S. degree in Biology from the College of William and Mary. Shortly after graduating from dental school, he married his wife, Holly. They moved to Montgomery, AL, where Dr. Kerr practiced for three years as part of the Air Force Dental Corp at Maxwell Air Force Base. Dr. Kerr grew up mostly in Tampa, and Holly in Joliet, IL. However, they both were drawn back to Atlanta where they have resided since 1982. Dr. Kerr has practiced in the Buckhead and Cumberland/Galleria areas at a few different locations, and he is very happy to be in his present location because of the spaciousness and high-tech features of the practice. Dr. Kerr's main focus is restorative treatment, including crowns, bridges, composite tooth-colored fillings, and restoration of dental implants. He is constantly cognizant of doing his best to make every visit as comfortable as possible for …each patient.
Dr. Kerr and Holly have two grown sons, Andy and Alec. Andy is a graduate of Wesleyan University and is now attending law school at Columbia University after having spent a few years back and forth between Atlanta, New York, and Asia, mostly teaching English as a second language and college admissions prep classes. Alec just graduated from Millsaps College in Jackson, MS in May of 2010. A history major with a Spanish minor, Alec's first love is football. He resides in Jackson and will intern as as assistant to the Millsaps defensive line coach in the Fall. Dr. Kerr and Holly devoted many hours to volunteer work as their sons were growing up. Dr. Kerr coached baseball, soccer and basketball. Holly was active in their schools and church. Now empty-nesters, they spend much of their free time reading, gardening, and practicing yoga.
Dr. Kerr considers himself fortunate to have found Dr. Gavric to join the practice in 2010! Having practiced since 1975, it is a great feeling to have an excellent partner in the practice to share the work load and all the responsibilities! Dr. Kerr enjoys the personal relationships that he has developed over the years with so many of the patients who have entrusted their dental care to him. These relationships are what have made it all worthwhile!
