LAKE CITY â On Monday, May 3, the Lake City Family Dentistry practice on Canal Street across from the library in Lake City officially changes hands.
Dr. Susan Vignola, who has enjoyed a thriving dental practice at the site for three decades, is retiring after serving the local community so effectively and efficiently and treating generations of patients. She will be missed but she is leaving her practice in very capable hands.
Dr. Mitch Thompson, a 2011 Lake City graduate who literally chose to become a dentist while watching Vignola in her office as a high school student as part of a job-shadow program, and who earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree at the prestigious Midwestern University in Downers Grove, Illinois in May of 2020, is officially taking over the practice.
