Dr. Gary attended the University of Louisville on a football scholarship, where he played quarterback and safety. In 2002, he was inducted into the U of L Hall of Fame. Choosing a career in dentistry over the NFL, he attended the University of Louisville School of Dentistry and graduated in 1976. Always having a love for young people, he chose to attend the orthodontic residency of U of L. “Orthodontics was a good choice for me. I have been blessed to be able to help so many of my hometown folks with their orthodontic needs. I had been interested in a career in orthodontics since my own personal experience with braces as a junior higher. It made such a lasting impression and helped me develop my self-esteem that I wanted to give this gift to others.” Helping to build self-esteem and confidence is the absolute best thing we do.

Following graduation and setting up practice in his hometown of Elizabethtown, “The Best Small Town in America,” Dr. Inman set his sights on becoming the best orthodontist he could be. In 1991, he became a diplomat of the American Board of Orthodontics. Other honors include being selected as a member of the American and International College of Dentistry. Dr. Inman is a member of the Kentucky Association of Orthodontists and served as president in 1984-85. He is a member of the Southern Association of Orthodontists and served as president in 2002, a distinction held by only six Kentuckians in the 84-year history of the SAO. He is also a member of the American Association of Orthodontists and has represented Kentucky as a delegate to the national convention for nearly 20 years.

“Orthodontics is a wonderful profession. We get to work with the best, most caring staff and our patients are tons of fun. Our office atmosphere is fun and upbeat, yet we take our duties very seriously.”

Dr. Gary and Susie Inman have three grown sons: Greg, Al and Nick. They also have two beautiful daughters-in-law and five grandchildren. “Being able to practice with my oldest son, Greg, has been a real treat.”
