Dr. Gina Johnson-Higgins

Chair: Lexington

Dr. Gina Johnson-Higgins is a general dentist who thinks her patients deserve the finest care and compassion in a modern and comfortable setting.

She graduated from Morehead State University with Bachelor of Science and Arts degrees in Biology, Psychology, and Chemistry.  Dr. Higgins then attended the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry where she graduated "Top Ten" while starting her family.

Dr. Higgins has been in private practice in Lexington, KY since 1999. She is a member of the Bluegrass Dental Society, the Kentucky Dental Association and the American Dental Association.

To achieve the highest level of comfort for her anxious patients, Dr. Higgins obtained credentialing with the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation (DOCS).  She felt compelled to further her education on sedation and attended a post-doctural "mini-residency" at the University of Kentucky to obtain her license to provide IV sedation for her patients.

She is committed to bringing every one of her patients to total health through outstanding oral care.  Dr. Higgins strives to educate every patient with the knowledge that their oral health directly impacts their overall health.

She believes in being an asset to the community and offers free dental care to the women of the Hope Center, a local drug and alcohol rehabilitation center, to give deserving women a fresh start.

In her spare time Dr. Higgins enjoys spending time with her husband, Greg Higgins, owner of the renowned Magee's Bakery and with her daughter.

“It’s been an honor and a privilege to be a member of the AACA and the Reingage Team.”  Dr. Gina
