Meet Dr. Hulse — the powerhouse behind Hulse Dental, now transitioned to Case Dental! 🦷
Dr. Hulse was raised right here in Onalaska, where he graduated from high school. From a young age, he knew he wanted to become a dentist after watching his father practice dentistry for 49 years.
He attended Luther College in Iowa for his undergraduate studies before heading to the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry, where he graduated in 1990.
But he wasn’t finished yet! Dr. Hulse proudly served in the U.S. Navy, completing a General Practice Residency and a naval tour until 1992. Once his time in the Navy wrapped up, he headed back to the Coulee Region to launch his own practice, Hulse Dental.
Then, in 1998, he opened our current Hulse Dental office right here in Onalaska—and we’ve been practicing out of this very same location ever since!
There is so much to be proud of when it comes to Hulse Dental and everything Dr. Hulse built over the years. It truly is an incredible legacy, and we are honored to continue it as Case Dental.
I recently asked Dr. Hulse why he has no plans of retiring just yet, and his response was perfect:
“How lucky am I to be able to continue doing what I love and what I worked so hard to build, and now I get to watch Dr. Case do the same thing. It is so cool, and I never want to give that up!”
That statement really sums up who Dr. Hulse is — both as a person and as a dentist. We are incredibly grateful for the legacy he has built and excited to continue that story together. 💙🦷
