Education is at the forefront of Dr. Goc’s philosophy. Prior to his life as a dentist, he completed a
fellowship at Northwestern University where he worked directly with Chicago Public Schools to

health. His priority is that all his patients are knowledgeable about their treatment needs.

Dr. Goc is a proud resident of the South Loop neighborhood. He has participated in multiple
community health events, including Festival del Niño, where he educated families about the
importance of oral health. In his free time, you may find him biking along the lakefront, on the
couch at home with partner and their two cats, or making the most out of the Chicago winters by
ice skating at the ribbon.
