The team at Roanoke Valley Orthodontics is thrilled to announce that The Roanoker magazine has named Dr. Jones to its Class of 2021 40 Under 40 list, which recognizes leaders in our area for their professional achievements and involvement in the community!

His nomination reads:

“Jones has always been a helper and giver, not a taker. When he commits to a project, he dependably sees it through to completion. He has very real compassion for people and a desire to help where he can. … He and his family love Roanoke and are committed to contributing to the betterment of the area and its people.”

We couldn’t agree more — we’ve always known he was remarkable.

Dr. Jones has some exceptional company on the list, including other healthcare professionals, members of law enforcement, educators, media and communications professionals, leaders of nonprofits, attorneys, and more. Scan the list and you’ll see many names you recognize.

When asked about his impact on the Roanoke Valley, Dr. Jones said:

“I have been passionate about the orthodontic profession from a very young age since my dad is also an orthodontist…. After becoming an orthodontist myself and owning my own practice, I have also found how rewarding it is to give back and witness the positive and profound impact we can make in our community here in Roanoke. As much as I love my profession, I also love the ability to support my patients in their activities and all of the wonderful local non-profit organizations in the Valley. As our office continues to grow, so will our dedication to our community that supports us!”

Dr. Jones is appreciative of the acclaim and the attention it brings to the benefits of service to one’s community.

“I was blown away to be included on the list,” Dr. Jones said. “The work that’s being done by others on the list is incredible. As Roanoke Valley residents and business leaders, it is our responsibility to put energy back into the community. I hope that others will be inspired and find ways to make even small differences where they live.”
