Prior to our Delta Dental of Washington Equity Hall ribbon-cutting ceremony, the SDM held a luncheon get-together for our current and future faculty and staff who were attending the ceremony. It allowed folks to meet in person, spend time together, and discuss our new program (plus get an early sneak peek at the simulation center!). Thanks to everyone who attended. We were blessed to have our own Dr. Maxine Brings Him Back-Janis, Professor of Dental Hygiene, recognize those of us who were involved in accreditation (Gary Pape, Robin Reinke, Lisa Brown, RDH, BASM, and Lolinda Turner) with Native American gifts. It was a truly touching moment in our meeting. Special thanks to Dr. Janis for joining our team and bringing her very special way of making us all feel ten feet tall when she speaks to us.
Sharing my post on the Pacific Northwest University of Health Sciences School of Dental Medicine ribbon cutting ceremony from yesterday.
The Pacific Northwest University of Health Sciences School of Dental Medicine celebrated a milestone yesterday with its ribbon-cutting ceremony and dedication of Delta Dental of Washington Equity Hall. It was a wonderful event - the turnout blew me away! Thank you to everyone who joined us to officially dedicate this amazing space. Special thanks to our speakers, Mark Mitchke, Dr. Linda Edgar, John Vornbrook, Dr. Chris Dorrow, and Senator Curtis King. This event would not have been possible without the PNWU facilities team - Jameson Watkins, Shane Scott and their team, the Lydig Construction team, our architect, Jacob Liddicoat, our project manager, Leanne Liddicoat, our partners at A-dec Inc., Susan Ferrante, Seth Watson and Grant Austin, and our partners at Burkhart Dental Supply who worked tirelessly in creating this beautiful educational and campus space. None of this would have happened without my amazing SDM team. Without their support, we would not have been able to make this celebration a reality. Thank you all! We will be posting more pictures as they come in...

As the Pacific Northwest University of Health Sciences School of Dental Medicine continues on its development journey, certain milestones are critical to our success—submission of our accreditation application, the accreditation site visit, and completing construction on Delta Dental of Washington Equity Hall. Yesterday was one of those days, as we hosted our first admissions day on campus. It was exciting to bring a group of highly qualified applicants to campus and allow them to spend the day with us. A lot of planning and preparation went into making the day a success - and while many on the team contributed, I wanted to call out these three amazing SDM team members - Monica M. Santillanes-Sanchez, Lolinda Turner, and Julia Orr - for it was through their hard work, attention to detail and passion for our school that the day was such a success. A well-executed admissions day allows not only our program to meet candidates but also allows the candidates to meet us. While on campus, they are evaluating us, our program, and our culture as much, if not more, than we are them as potential dental students. Yesterday was not only a home run, but it went out of the stadium! My thanks to the entire SDM team, the admissions committee, Derrick from the sim team (he sure loves the VR simulator!), and T'Erra Felder from our PNWU admissions office for their efforts in kicking off what will surely be a hugely successful admissions cycle.

At the WSDA house of delegates 2024 meeting as a delegate of the Seattle King County Dental Society. Dr. Marshall Titus and I representing with Don Foti of the PNWU SDM family (Sopranos joke 😂). If you have ever thought about organized dentistry, I have learned so much, collaborated on so much, and we continue to improve the profession and patient access to care.
