Born and raised in Minnesota, Dr. Pelke graduated from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry in 2002. During his time there he was active in the American Student Dental Association and volunteered his time at various charitable organizations. Dr. Pelke joined Woodbury Dental Care in 2004.

Voted "Biggest Teddy Bear" by his high school class, Dr. Pelke strives to be a compassionate and caring provider. He and the entire staff of Woodbury Dental Care are committed to maintaining our patients' dental health in a comfortable, relaxing, and painless environment. By taking time to listen to our patients and treating them as if they were family members, we can help erase some of the old stigmas of dental care.

Dr. Pelke and his wife Jill are busy parents of three children. As a former college football player, he continues to stay active by running, hiking, biking, and, of course, chasing the kids around. An enthusiastic sports fan, he is proud to be a team dentist for the Minnesota Wild hockey team, the St. Paul Saints baseball team and the Minnesota Swarm Lacrosse Team.
