Dr. Alina Drosu, General Dentist has been practicing dentistry for over 20 years. She graduated in 1995 from the University of Tg. Mures, Romania and completed a two-year residency at the University of Cluj, Napoca, Romania.
Having lived in Romania, Dr. Drosu speaks fluent Romanian. She also attended German School for nine years and speaks German as well.
In 1998 Dr. Drosu moved to Canada, and in the spring of 2000, she opened her first dental practice in Fort McMurray. In 2005, Dr. Drosu moved to Calgary and has been practicing dentistry in South Calgary serving Midnapore and surrounding areas ever since.

Dr. Wes Prepchuk
General Dentist
Dr. Wes Prepchuk was born in Edmonton but grew up mostly in the Calgary area. He made the trek over to Sydney, Australia in 2005, accompanied by his wife and two little boys. Since then, they’ve added two more children to their family, including a little girl.
Dr. Prepchuk holds bachelor degrees in Biochemistry from the University of Lethbridge, Canada and in Dentistry from the University of Sydney, Australia.
He believes in the importance of offering a complete range of services to his patients and has yet to discover an aspect of dentistry that he doesn’t enjoy. He loves the interaction with people, the intricately detailed work, and the active learning environment that dentistry provides.
After 14 years of practicing dentistry in Australia, he and his now-grown family have moved back home to Calgary to settle, trading the sunny beaches and kangaroos of Australia for the snowy mountains and grizzly bears of Canada.
Dr. Jon Calvert
Dr. Jon Calvert is originally from Lethbridge, Alberta. He spent as much of his early life as he could on the soccer field, as a coach, player, and referee. After graduating from high school, Jon made the decision to travel to Ukraine as a full-time service volunteer for 25 months. While there, Jon developed a profound love for humanity, and will happily say that he’s never come to know a person, without also coming to respect them. While there, I learned how to speak, read and write in Russian.
On graduating from the University of Alberta in Biology and Chemistry in 2015, Jon and his wife Angela made the decision to move with their young daughter to Sydney, Australia and attend the University of Sydney. Jon welcomed a second daughter while in Sydney and graduated from the DMD program in 2019. Dr. Calvert returned home in February 2020 to begin practicing as a General Dentist in Alberta.
Dr. Calvert loves all aspects of General Dentistry and is excited to delve deeper into whichever courses will benefit his patients most. Currently, he’s enrolled in a CBCT course through the University of Alberta.
Outside of the dental office, Dr. Calvert loves to pick up new skills like piano tuning and home maintenance, spend time with his wife and three children, read books, and play games. He’s also the proud owner of a karaoke trophy and gained an altogether unhealthy love of spreadsheets and budgeting from his father.

Amber has worked with Dr. Drosu since 2008, one of the longest members of the team aside from the doctor herself!
While she’s called Calgary home for the last 14 years, Amber’s originally from the beautiful mountains of British Columbia. It’s no surprise that she loves camping, hiking, and swimming when she’s not helping patients of course.
