I started out on bicycles years ago and had my own little shop down in Greenwood for a while and really learned about, you know, the right tool for the right job kind of a thing. I wasn’t a hammer and pliers kind of guy. You know, you had to have the specific stuff and dentistry is very much like that.
It just became something that really spoke to me in my mid-30s. I was actually working for a video production company before that with a broadcast degree and I decided to change up in my mid-30s. So I started out in dental school at 34, graduated at 38, did public health for three and a half years between two states and then bought my first practice in 2006 and the Edmonds practice in 2014.
So it’s just really been a great journey, you know, and it’s not something that you have to get right out of school for and be young. You can kick it off at any time, which I proved to be, you know, where I am now because of that. And the people appreciate us and I do try to keep it light, you know, no one wants to be here.
We just try to make a good, you know, good experience for the patients. We want them to know that we certainly appreciate earning their trust and trust is earned every day. We’ve got a great team of people around us.
It’s just magnificent. But when it comes to real serious stuff or really trying to pull a tooth out of the fire, so to speak, we’re so blessed with so many great specialists just right here in our area. There’s such a great friendship among specialists and patients know that if we have to send you to somewhere else, then that just means that we just want to make sure everything goes right the first time for you.
