Get to know Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon Dr. Steven R. Evelhoch, who serves patients in Marshfield, Wisconsin.

A highly trained oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Dr. Evelhoch treats diseases, injuries, and defects in the hard and soft tissues of the head, neck, face and jaw at Marshfield Medical Center in Marshfield, Wisconsin. He performs orthognathic jaw surgery, cosmetic, reconstructive, and trauma surgeries to improve the appearance of these areas.

Enjoying working with people of all ages, he wants to treat his patients like a person and not like a number. “I think that patients need to be able to make decisions in their care and we need to guide them in those decisions. I want to have a good relationship with my patients” he said. 

Serving in the Navy, Dr. Evelhoch had two deployments where he provided surgical care. “Serving other people is the best thing you can do in life. Many members of my family served during WWII, so serving in the Navy was very important to me” he noted. He uses this servant attitude to provide the best experience possible for his patients. 

Graduating with his Bachelor of Science degree from Creighton University in 1980, he went on to earn his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the Creighton University School of Dentistry in 1984. Years later, in 1999, he obtained his medical degree from the Creighton University School of Medicine.

Pursuing further training, Dr. Evelhoch completed his residency in oral & maxillofacial surgery at the Medical University of South Carolina, his residency in general surgery at the University of Michigan – Medical Center, and his residency in anesthesiology at the University of Wisconsin – Hospitals & Clinics. He then performed two fellowships at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and at the Institute of Facial and Cosmetic Surgery in Salt Lake City, Utah in full body cosmetic surgery, head and neck oncology, and microvascular surgery. He also holds a Master of Business Administration degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Master’s degree in Healthcare Management from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee.

A Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS) and a Fellow of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery (FAACS), Dr. Evelhoch is an active member of the American Association of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons, the American Dental Association, the American Head & Neck Society, the American Medical Association, the American Society for Head & Neck Surgery, the American Society of Maxillofacial Surgeons, the International Association of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons, and the Society of Surgical Oncology.

Attributing his success to perseverance, he is triple board-certified through the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery, the American Board of Facial Cosmetic Surgery, and the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.
