Dr. Jonah Foutz, a native of New Mexico, was born in Farmington, New Mexico and graduated from La Cueva High School Class of 2000. Upon graduation, and since the world didn’t end as predicted by many Y2Ker’s, he attended Dixie State College in St. George Utah on a football scholarship.
An impressive athlete in high school, Dr. Foutz was a 3-time 100-meter state champion and three-time all-state running back.
After a year at Dixie State, Dr. Foutz decided to leave the world behind and serve a 2-year mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in the Seattle, Washington area. These were 2 of the most cherished years of his life, despite all the biking in the rain! Upon returning to the glorious and sunny southwest from his mission in the damp and dark northwest, and upon looking in a mirror, Dr. Foutz realized that he would not be handsome forever, so his next “mission” was to find a beautiful wife before it was too late- if it wasn’t already. He did this successfully and married the stunning Sophia Alexandra 6 months after his mission, also a native of Albuquerque.
Having married his wife and soon expecting their first child, Dr. Foutz transferred schools back to Albuquerque to be close to family. He attended the University of New Mexico from 2004 to 2008 and graduated cum laude with bachelor’s degrees in both biology and chemistry. While he was at UNM he played football for the Lobos and was the president of the New Mexico Pre-Dental Society. Having discovered a new found love for academia and with an ever-increasing family (and waistline!), Dr. Foutz decided to hang up his cleats and continued on to the University of Missouri- Kansas City from 2008 to 2012. There he attended both the Henry W. Bloch School of Management Masters of Business Administration program and also earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the UMKC School of Dentistry.
Dr. Foutz now has 5 amazing children whom he adores. They reside in beautiful Corrales, New Mexico where he spends time tending to his yard and fruit orchard. He is a “wannabe” farmer, as his wife calls him, and left to himself actually kills more than he keeps alive, but with his wife and children’s assistance, together they do pretty well. Dr. Foutz loves to work hard and takes his jobs very seriously. He owns several dental practices and side businesses and knows when to have fun but also when to take things seriously. However, he also likes to play hard and enjoys traveling, kayaking, mountain biking, fishing, movies, Netflix binging, discovering new things, laughing, is an avid reader, and just loves doing anything where he can be with family and friends.
Dr. Foutz loves being a dentist and can do all aspects of dentistry, but has a special interest in CAD-CAM technology and implant dentistry. His digital dental workflow allows him to use the latest and greatest technology to provide you the best treatment possible.
Thank you for being a patient of Bosque Dental!
