As the only female general dental practice owner in Yakima, WA, and the current president of the Yakima Valley Dental Society, Dr. T is passionate about raising the standard for patient-centred care in the community she proudly calls home. She leads Lakeside Dentistry with over 20 years of experience, calm confidence, and a genuine love for working with and helping people. Her passion for dentistry was sparked by her orthodontist, who hired her to be one of his assistants when she was only fourteen. She saw firsthand how care, kindness, and listening could change someone’s entire experience, and she carried that belief into every patient interaction since. Dr. T is also deeply committed to going above and beyond state licence requirements for continuing education—constantly expanding her knowledge and refining her skills to provide the highest quality, most modern care possible for her patients. Outside the office, Dr. T is a wife, mom to twin girls, and an adventurer at heart. When she’s not working, you can find her kayaking, hiking, travelling, or playing with her dog, Lilyblue. Memberships: American Dental Association, Washington State Dental Association, Yakima Valley Dental Association, American Society of Dental Anesthesiologists, Academy of General Dentistry, Yakima Prosthodontic Seminar Study Club (affiliated with Seattle Study Club). Executive Board member of the Yakima Valley Dental Society as Secretary/Treasurer, Vice President and President two years in a row.
