Ladd Dental Group

One of the most rewarding parts of what we do isn't just growing practices or serving patients—it's the opportunity to work alongside genuinely talented, humble, and grateful people. Dr. Bala Sankurati is a perfect example of that. His dedication to dentistry , passion for learning, and commitment to providing exceptional patient care are inspiring on their own. But what stands out even more is his gratitude, humility, and the positive attitude he brings to our team every single day. We're incredibly fortunate to have Dr. Bala serving patients at our Kokomo and Peru locations. Surrounding yourself with people who are driven to make a difference while remaining kind and appreciative makes all the difference. Thank you, Dr. Bala, for being an outstanding clinician, an exceptional teammate, and an inspiration to all of us at LADD Dental Group . We're excited for everything we'll accomplish together!

 At LADD Dental Group , we believe that great dental care starts with great communication. That’s why we are incredibly grateful to have Dr. Olsen Cottle leading our Rushville office and serving the wonderful families of this community. Dr. Cottle will also be serving patients out of our LADD Dental Group of McCordsville location. One of the many things that makes Dr. Cottle special is his ability to provide care in both English and Spanish . Being bilingual allows him to connect with more patients, explain treatment options clearly, answer questions with confidence, and help families feel comfortable throughout their dental experience. Breaking Down Barriers to Better Dental Care For many patients, visiting the dentist can feel overwhelming—especially when there is a language barrier. Dr. Cottle’s fluency in Spanish helps create a welcoming environment where patients can communicate openly, understand their oral health needs, and make informed decisions about their care. Eve...

 There are moments that remind you why you do what you do, and our Open House at LADD Dental Group of Rushville was certainly one of them.

As we continue to get ready for the opening of LADD Dental Group of Rushville , we've been reflecting on the incredible people who have helped make this journey possible. Today, we want to express our sincere gratitude to Dr. Douglas Morrell for the remarkable partnership we've built throughout this process. When we purchased Dr. Morrell's medical office building in Rushville, we knew we were acquiring a wonderful location with a long history of caring for the community. What we didn't fully appreciate at the time was just how invaluable Dr. Morrell himself would become throughout the transition. From day one, Dr. Morrell has been much more than the previous owner of the building—he has been a true partner. His willingness to share his knowledge, offer guidance, answer questions, and help us navigate the many details involved in preparing the practice has been extraordinary. His support has made what could have been a challenging transition feel like a collaborative ef...
