Dr. George Meadows
Board-Certified Pediatric Dentist
Dr. Meadows was born and raised in Belgrade, North Carolina. He earned his bachelor’s degree in biology from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke. Following graduation, he accepted a leadership consultant role with Theta Xi Fraternity Headquarters in St. Louis, Missouri, before beginning his dental education.
He went on to receive his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) from Nova Southeastern University, where he actively participated in various leadership roles throughout his time there.
