Valarie

Office Manager

I’ve been happily married to my amazing husband since 1984, and we currently live in Spokane Valley, WA. Together we have two grown children and three beautiful grandchildren.

Before becoming a dental office manager, I used to work in banking. When I discovered the flexibility dentistry gave me to raise my children, I made my choice and never looked back.

The best part of my job is working with caring dentists who always put our patients first. I also love the team atmosphere that we have created. We became a family outside of our own families.

Outside of the office, I love watching a good football game live or at home while quilting. I also enjoy sewing, baking, traveling, and spending time with family.

Administrator

I was born and raised in Weippe, ID. I am married to my wonderful husband, Ed, and we have three amazing kids, Chase, Katie, and Kennedy.

I chose dentistry because I had a fantastic dentist and dental hygienist that I loved when I was growing up. Having such a positive dental experience early on inspired me to help others enjoy superior dental care.

I feel so honored to have this job. For me, there is nothing better than interacting with our patients and watching their families grow as the years pass.

When I’m not working, I enjoy camping, spending time with the family, and attending all of my kids’ sporting events.

Christie

Dental Hygienist

I was born and raised on the west side near Issaquah. I attended Eastern Washington University and graduated with my Bachelors of Science in Dental Hygiene in 2017.

Dentistry has fascinated me since I was a child, and by 10th grade, I knew I wanted to become a dental hygienist. I enjoy educating my patients on their oral health and helping them attain the smile of their dreams.

While treating you, my goal is to make sure you always feel comfortable, which sometimes includes a little humor and laughter from my part.

Outside of dentistry, my biggest passion is traveling and seeing the world. I’m also a fan of baseball and football so I try to catch a game once a year.

Kelsey

Dental Hygienist

I grew up in Spokane Valley where I had a wonderful childhood being raised with my twin sisters.

I was drawn to dentistry mainly because I love to see people smile and the emotion this field can evoke for patients. I decided that being a hygienist was the area for me. Thus, I attended Washington State University and then transferred to Eastern Washington University to complete my dental hygiene education.

I am a caring and empathetic person who wants to make your dental visit a happy and memorable experience. Trust that I will always put your needs and comfort first so you can enjoy superior dental care.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time at our property in Usk. My boyfriend and I enjoy going out in the woods and spending time at the lake. We love being with family and friends and creating lasting memories.

Stephanie

Dental Hygienist

I grew up here in Spokane but moved to Portland, OR when I was 18. After 20 years away, I decided to come back here to raise my adorable son.

In the beginning, I chose dentistry to support my expensive horse habit. Nowadays, I am still in dentistry because of the same reason, plus helping patients understand the importance of oral health and its effect on our body.

The best part of my job is developing close friendships with our patients. Gaining their trust and sharing their stories is a privilege I get to enjoy every day. What’s more, helping them transform their “dreaded” dental visit into a pleasant experience is a great satisfaction.

Outside of the office, I love playing baseball with my son and spending time with my two dogs. I also enjoy horseback riding, photography, traveling, and spending time with my friends and boyfriend.

Dental Assistant

I grew up right here in Spokane, WA. I am one of those rare and beautiful stories where the girl married her best friend from high school. We are very happy, and we have an amazing daughter and son-in-law.

Why did I choose dentistry? Simple, for the love of molars (I’m serious!).

My coworkers are the best part of coming to work every day. I love our little work family, and I genuinely enjoy being a team player.

I spend my free time doing as many outdoor activities as possible. I enjoy mountain biking, hiking, camping, and more biking!

Dental Assistant

I’ve been in the dental field for over 25 years now. I have three grown children and six incredible grandsons whom I love to spend time with.

I can say with great confidence that I have the best job in the world! Not only do I love caring for our patients, but I also love the people I work with every day.

The doctors are just amazing to work for, and the practice has a home feel that you can’t find anywhere else. Even though we all work hard, we’ve learned to have fun in the process!

In my spare time, I love spending time with my family and doing outdoor activities like camping.

Dental Assistant

I spent my early years in the small southern town of Heyburn, ID

I’m convinced I didn’t choose dentistry; it chose me. My first dental employers approached me after observing me work at a restaurant. Although I was enrolled at North Idaho College at the time, I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with my life. I’m incredibly grateful to them for giving me a direction and sharing their love for dentistry with me.

I love to help people and make them happy. Every time an apprehensive patient walks away with a smile and is eager to come back for their next visit, I can’t help but feel proud of my work.

When my husband and I aren’t at home with our two sons, two dogs, and three goats, you can find us outdoors. We love skiing, boating, and exploring.

Dental Assistant

I’ve had the opportunity to live in seven states before moving to Washington. The name of the last state I lived in is my nickname at the office: “Alabama.”

Working as a dental assistant is rewarding for me. I absolutely love helping people. Seeing our patients’ joy after restoring their smiles reminds me that I made the right choice to work in dentistry.

I love working with our great dentist and my awesome coworkers every day. I do everything possible to put our patients at ease by keeping a friendly, positive attitude. You’ll always find me multitasking with a smile at the office.

In my spare time, you can find me spending time with my amazing husband and our two adorable dogs, Tink and Aspen. Oh – and I really enjoy a good nap too!
