Gayatri Malik, DMD, PHD

Dentists in small towns often feel like an afterthought, tucked away in strip malls or above pharmacies. Gayatri Malik, DMD, PHD breaks that mold—right on N Academy Avenue, where the sidewalks actually lead somewhere. The office sits at 100 N Academy Ave, Danville, PA 17822, a spot that’s equal parts convenient and unassuming, the kind of place you’d drive past daily without realizing it’s there until you need it. Routine cleanings, fillings, and more involved procedures all happen under one roof, which is saying something in a town where specialists are usually a twenty-minute drive away. When the toothache hits or the crown feels loose, that’s the number to dial: (570) 271-6211.

Danville’s mix of old brick storefronts and quiet side streets makes it easy to forget how close you are to Geisinger’s campus. That proximity likely explains why Malik’s practice feels both local and connected to broader medical networks. Patients here get the usual—exams, X-rays, root canals—without the runaround of referrals or the hassle of scheduling across different buildings. For directions or to confirm hours before your visit, pull up the map; it’s the same one everyone else in the neighborhood uses when they’re in a pinch. Nothing fancy, just teeth taken care of.
