Meet Dr. Jason Goltz

If you've made it this far, you have patience.  We have to have this section and I'd prefer to be more humorous, but you probably need to hear how much I care.  I honestly do.  I pour my heart and soul into providing excellent care to all of my patients.  I pride myself on providing superb customer service and impeccable orthodontic treatment.  

I consider it a privilege to have a “job” like mine. I get to be creative, artistic, and highly interactive with interesting people, all while improving each person’s self-esteem by giving them healthy, beautiful smile. I enjoy every aspect of my day, but the highlight is laughing with our patients, hearing about their day and activities, and talking about their dreams for the future.

It is reassuring to know that the treatment I and our team offer has the potential to transform a person’s life – and for that change to last a lifetime. From visit to visit, we see how the gradual movement of teeth changes a person’s appearance, and as that happens, the individual feels more comfortable with how they look.

By the time a person finishes their treatment at Slidell Orthodontics, they have a new outlook on life, with a bright, healthy, and beautifully confident smile leading the way!  Or, at least straight teeth ;-)

Beyond Orthodontics

A Tallahassee native, Dr. Goltz loves living in St. Tammany with his family. His wife, Chandler, is a local dentist too. The couple has two young daughters, Caroline and Claire, and their family is rounded out by their small Shih Tzu, Cricket.

After work, Dr. Goltz is most often with his family; he loves hanging out with his children! He also loves cooking, baking bread, and exploring new restaurants. An avid artist, he regularly sketches, paints, practices wood carving, and leather crafting, too.

Having spent a large part of his life swimming – he went to LSU on a swimming scholarship – Dr. Goltz still follows the sport, along with tennis.  Geaux Tigers!
