My name is Dr. Jason Kennedy and I am pleased to welcome you to Southeast Oral Surgery where you will receive a combination of superior patient care and innovative procedures, which have earned the Southeast Oral Surgery practice a reputation of excellence in the field in the state of Tennessee.

I am so pleased to be a member of this contemporary team of surgeons and to call East TN my home. I am happily married and have a three-year-old daughter and two year old son. My journey into oral surgery began at the University of Louisville, where I received a Doctorate of Dental Education. I received the Oral Surgery Excellence Award from the Louisville School of Dentistry. During this time, I traveled to the Dominican Republic three times with the Christian Medical and Dental Association to provide oral health care for underprivileged native citizens. I also provided health care for inner city indigent residents in Louisville, Kentucky through Touched Twice Ministries.

I consider myself extremely lucky to have completed residency at the University of Tennessee, one of the premier Oral Maxillofacial teaching hospitals in the United States. I am qualified as an Advanced Trauma Life Support Instructor. I am certified in American Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) Pediatric Life Support, (PALS) and Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS). While in residency, I was involved in cutting edge research with PET/CT Technology and presented research findings at the National Meeting of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons in San Diego, California.
