Dr. Nickeisha Perez
Dr. Nickeisha Perez is a native of Long Island, New York. Her interest in dentistry and orthodontics first began as a young girl because of her wonderful experiences with a funny, kind, and gentle pediatric dentist. She had braces for the first time as an adult, however, which gave her the important perspective of how successful orthodontic outcomes can be achieved at any age.
As the first step in her dental career, Dr. Perez worked as an orthodontic assistant with a stellar orthodontic team. She then pursued her dental degree and graduated with her Doctor of Dental Medicine from Tufts University in Boston, MA and earned her Master of Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopedics from Columbia University in New York, NY. During her time at Tufts, she was awarded the Dr. Alfred and Mrs. Suzi Osher Orthodontics Scholarship, the TUSDM merit Scholarship, and inducted into the Honos Civicus Society for Community Service and Civic Engagement. She is proud to provide the same informative, collaborative, and compassionate care that was delivered to her as a pediatric dental patient and adult orthodontic patient. She believes in working with her patients and using evidence-based techniques to achieve their treatment goals.
During her free time, Dr. Perez enjoys traveling the world with her husband, friends, and family. She enjoys playing tennis, visiting museums, and attending NBA, WNBA, and MLB games. She looks forward to becoming an official member of the Philadelphia sports family!
Dr. Dionysia Iliopoulos
Hello, I’m Dr. Dionysia Iliopoulos! I am one of the amazing associates here at Kellyn Hodges Orthodontics and am passionate about creating confident, healthy smiles. I completed my training in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics from Roseman University in Henderson, Nevada. What I love most about orthodontics is it’s unique blend of science, problem-solving, and creativity. Every case is different, and I love designing personalized treatment plans that can truly transform not just a smile, but someone’s confidence too. Being able to see that change over time is incredibly rewarding.
I work with patients of all ages, from early treatment to more complex cases, and enjoy using both traditional techniques and modern digital tools like clear aligners and 3D-designed appliances to make treatment as efficient and comfortable as possible.
My approach blends traditional orthodontics with modern digital technology—I regularly work with 3D imaging, clear aligners, and custom-designed appliances to create efficient, personalized treatment plans. I also value collaboration and often work closely with general dentists and specialists to make sure patients get the best overall care.
I earned my Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from Rutgers School of Dental Medicine, where I graduated with honors and was inducted into Omicron Kappa Upsilon. Before that, I studied Biology at Stockton University, graduating summa cum laude. Outside of the office, I love traveling, hiking, painting, and anything related to history. I enjoy connecting with people and helping patients feel confident in their smiles throughout their treatment journey.
