Bayside Dentistry - Orillia

Dr. Evelyn Elsey

Associate Dentist

Dr. Elsey’s academic journey began at the University of Western Ontario, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Physiology, followed by a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in 1978. Post-graduation, she relocated to Barrie, established her dental practice, found love and started a family, welcoming three children over the next twelve years. In 1990, health issues led her to sell her practice and pivot towards a career in academia. This transition saw her enrolling in a two-year comprehensive dentistry program at the University of Toronto.

During her tenure at the University of Toronto, Dr. Elsey dedicated seven years to emergency and oral diagnosis, while also earning a fellowship at the Academy of General Dentistry. In 1994, she resumed private practice, balancing this with a part-time role at the university. She continued this dual career path until 2007, when she sold her practice and began working part-time with Dr. Van Rassel.

Dr. Elsey’s commitment to continuous learning led to her achieving a Master’s in General Dentistry in 2009. Now, with more free time, she indulges in her love for travel with her husband, enjoys golfing and playing bridge, and cherishes moments spent with her expanding family of grandchildren.

The team at Bayside dentistry is absolutely amazing. They are friendly and always make you welcome with a smile. Crystal & Allison are great at taking care of scheduling and co-ordinating payments with your insurer. Jess is a very kind and gentle hygienist. She is an absolute pleasure to deal with. Thank you.

I always enjoy visiting with my dental hygienist Samantha she’s so lovely. She always remembers our last conversations details of my life. She’s very thorough with her work making sure every last bit of plaque is removed from my teeth. Always offering helpful hints and suggestions relating to latest options or techniques. She’s very knowledgeable. The girls are also very friendly and helpful at the front desk. I highly recommend this place and always look forward to my visits.

Highly recommend! I have lots of anxiety about going to the dentist. They made me feel comfortable, the staff is friendly and professional and I know I am in good hands. Corinne was my hygienist, she did an awesome job at cleaning my teeth and giving me educational tips and information.

Despite my circumstances and anxiety about being there, I had 2 great ladies with me. Personable, always on point to ensure I wasn’t feeling pain and followed-up with a hygienist who was just as thoughtful before I left from my last visit. There is no doubt for me that I will be going back and will likely bring some family members into this great group of women who DO care and I’m grateful to have met a few so far, even got a check-up call this morning. Know any dentist office is not a favoured go to for so many, but I felt like I was in a fireside chat environment for the limited time I was in the waiting rooms and that was because I was early each time
