Fun Facts with Dr. Kardohely
Q: What’s the first concert you ever went to? My first concert was Britney Spears! I remember it like it was yesterday. I was five years old, and I had just gotten home from school, and my mom hands me the phone, saying that my dad was calling me with a surprise. He was so excited to tell me that we had concert tickets to see my favorite person. As a child, I spent way too much time jumping on my bed, singing along to all her hits, so this was a surprise of a lifetime (despite me falling asleep 3 songs in).
Q: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be? Fried pickles with ranch, Caesar salad, and sushi. That list makes me sound crazy, but of course I’m going to pick my three favorite foods. If I get drink choices, I’ll do a McDonald’s sprite or a Peach Vibe Celsius!
Q: How do you feel about putting pineapple on pizza? Who am I to judge? (Pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza)
Q: Do you have any skills or talents that most people don’t know about? I’ve been playing tennis since I was 5! It’s my favorite sport, and I’m so glad that it is something that I can play as an adult too! I was pretty good, and I was ranked in high school. I’m ambidextrous, so that came in handy. Recently, I’ve been loving pickleball too.
Q: Dogs or cats? 100% dogs. I had a cat growing up and I found out that I am allergic. My dog, Clementine, is the best!

Dr. Kardohely's Story
Dr. Caitlin Kardohely was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania but spent most of her life in Vermont. When she graduated from high school, she knew she wanted a change from the cold snowy winters, so, when she got into Clemson University, she was thrilled! At Clemson, she majored in Biological Sciences and got a double minor in Microbiology and Psychology. She loved her experience there, and still loves going back to games.
If you ask Dr. K what really made her want to become a dentist, she’ll tell you that to her it’s a perfect blend of engineering, art, and healthcare, but the real credit should go to her mother, who was a dental hygienist, who knew that she would love the field.
After graduating from Clemson University, she attended the Medical University of South Carolina right here in Charleston! It was there that her real love of dentistry started, and she met some amazing mentors and friends, some of whom work for FDH, including her husband, the other Dr. K!
When she isn’t working, Dr. K likes to go on walks around downtown/the Ravenel bridge, play tennis, and hang out with her husband and her mini bernedoodle Clementine. She also plays trivia once a week with her team, and they sometimes do ok!
This Dr. K is so excited to be serving the area of Tobias Gadson and can’t wait to meet you!
