Rabbit Creek Dental
is hereby recognized as a
TOP GUN Professional Business!
Joseph Gegzna, you are considered a champion business owner for building Rabbit Creek Dental from the ground up and creating a dental practice centered on quality care, patient comfort, honest communication, and a positive experience for families throughout the community. Your leadership, dedication to your patients and team, and commitment to serving and giving back to the community are a reflection of what successful local business ownership is all about. We recognize and commend you for building and managing Rabbit Creek Dental, a trusted dental practice serving Mobile County, Alabama.
Small businesses are the backbone of an economy.
The owners of these small businesses are entrepreneurs who often take significant financial and business risks, provide employment opportunities, and bring their creativity, skill, and ingenuity to the overall commerce of a local community, town, city, and county. Many business owners work long hours, endure challenging times, make personal sacrifices, and still find ways to give back to the communities they serve.
Our research team at Expansion Support Services, owners of the County Advisory Board, identified Rabbit Creek Dental as a locally owned business that is appreciated by its patients and provides valuable dental services to Mobile County and the surrounding communities.
The continued success of Rabbit Creek Dental speaks to the dedication, leadership, and ability of Dr. Joseph Gegzna to overcome the many obstacles and challenges that are part and parcel of business ownership while building a dental practice focused on patient comfort, communication, and quality care.
Dr. Joseph Gegzna built Rabbit Creek Dental from the ground up in 2022 with a simple goal: to create a dental practice where patients feel comfortable, listened to, and fully informed about their care.
Dr. Gegzna brings a unique and impressive background to dentistry. Before dental school, he earned a degree in Aviation Management and spent six years as a pilot. After graduating from the University of Louisville School of Dentistry in 2014, he practiced in the Mobile area and later served as a dentist at the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad and on military bases in Iraq.
Today, Dr. Gegzna leads Rabbit Creek Dental alongside associate dentist Dr. Patrick Shipp, who brings more than 13 years of dental experience to the practice. Before moving to the Mobile Bay area, Dr. Shipp owned and operated his own dental practice in Mississippi.
Located in the Tillman’s Corner area of Mobile, Alabama, Rabbit Creek Dental serves patients from Mobile, Theodore, Grand Bay, Dauphin Island, and surrounding Mobile County communities.
Rabbit Creek Dental provides comprehensive dental care for patients of all ages, including dental cleanings and exams, fillings, crowns and bridges, root canals, extractions, periodontal care, emergency dentistry, dental implants, dentures and partials, teeth whitening, children’s dentistry, and other preventive and restorative dental services.
The practice also utilizes modern dental technology, including digital X-rays, CBCT 3D imaging, digital intraoral scanning, intraoral cameras, and AI-assisted dental imaging. These tools help patients see and better understand areas of concern, such as tooth decay and bone loss, while allowing the doctors to clearly explain their findings and available treatment options.
Just as important as the services they provide is the way Rabbit Creek Dental provides them. The doctors and team focus on honest dental care without judgment, unnecessary treatment, or unnecessary hassle. They work to get patients in quickly, stay on schedule, and make dental visits as comfortable, positive, and straightforward as possible.
That patient-first philosophy also extends to the workplace. Dr. Gegzna and Dr. Shipp have built a team culture that is positive, supportive, and genuinely enjoyable — something patients can feel when they walk through the door. From the front office to the treatment room, the goal is to help patients feel welcomed, respected, informed, and comfortable while receiving the dental care they need.
Outside of dentistry, Dr. Gegzna enjoys boating, spending time on the water, and spending time at home with his wife and their three Goldendoodles.
Dr. Shipp has been married to his wife, Morgan, for more than 12 years. They have three children and a beagle named Stella, and the family enjoys exploring the Mobile Bay area together.
Rabbit Creek Dental also supports Dog River Clearwater Revival, a local grassroots organization dedicated to protecting and improving the Dog River watershed, further demonstrating the practice’s connection and commitment to the community it serves.
We take this moment to acknowledge and thank Dr. Joseph Gegzna, Dr. Patrick Shipp, and the entire Rabbit Creek Dental team for the past, present, and future contributions they have made and will continue to make in Mobile County.
Dr. Joseph Gegzna, you are highly commended and appreciated for being a business owner, building Rabbit Creek Dental from the ground up, creating local employment opportunities, serving families throughout Mobile County, and playing the business owner game in Mobile County, Alabama.
Rabbit Creek Dental is currently accepting new patients for general, family, restorative, implant, cosmetic, and emergency dental care.
