About Greg Foote

Quality & Customer Service

Greg Foote Jewelers in Oakdale is a full-service neighborhood store that also does on-site repairs. Greg and his team – graduate gemologist Jean Hoerth, bench jeweler Abby Hawkinson, and customer service representatives Tina Reeves, Shelley Roeske, Betty Nelson, and Monica Santella – can accommodate most any need.

 Tina says she enjoys the challenge of fielding unusual requests. The inventory of finished jewelry on display is not the limit of what a guest can buy. “If there is anything you need, we can probably find it for you,” she says.

But it’s not just flexibility and friendliness that have made Greg’s studio an Oakdale, MN favorite. The store offers the expert knowledge possessed by Jean Hoerth who is a graduate gemologist from the nationally recognized Gemological Institute of America.

Jean is the rare combination of goldsmith and graduate gemologist – “Typically, there aren’t too many of us who are both graduate gemologists and goldsmiths,” she says.

The highly trained jewelers at Greg Foote Jewelry can safely and expertly complete repairs that would be risky without the latest technology. The shop’s laser welder gives the team the ability to perform highly sensitive repairs.

“With the laser welder, we can do things that you can’t do conventionally. It’s one of the latest technologies in the jewelry industry and it allows us to do so much more and to do it safely,” states Greg.
