Dr. Jillian Porto was born in Madison, Wisconsin and moved to Sarasota, Florida in 1996. Sarasota has been her home ever since. She graduated with honors from Sarasota High School in 2007 before attending University of South Florida for a degree in Biomedical Science. She then attended University of Florida for her dental degree where she graduated at the top of her class. Dr. Porto received several awards while attending dental school and was selected by faculty as the 2015 Hinman Scholar due to her superior academics. She was also inducted into Omicron Kappa Upsilon in 2016, a prestigious dental honor society that recognizes scholarship and character within the profession. Dr. Porto continued her education with a one year residency in Advanced Education in General Dentistry in Seminole, Florida. In that program, she gained extensive training in multidisciplinary procedures, and surgeries which is a valuable asset to offer her patients. Dr. Porto is so excited to be back in Sarasota near her family again. It is also the perfect location for her hobbies which include boating, fishing, and riding her horse.
