Martin Roberson, D.D.S., was born in Atlanta and moved all around the state of Georgia as a youngster. Growing up in a household where his father was a pastor for 31 years and his mother was a registered nurse, he learned the value of caring about others and working hard for a living. “With both my parents having careers involving the giving of themselves to others, I knew early on that I wanted to help people,” Martin states proudly.
From grade school to high school, Martin played all the sports he could. If it was a sport that involved him being outside, he participated in it. This desire to be outside would one day help him decide where he would live — someplace warm and southern.
In high school Martin got braces and developed a friendship with his Orthodontist his senior year. He admits, “I wasn’t all that thrilled about getting braces, but it did open my eyes to a possible career.” He saw how he could help others and started considering becoming a doctor.
