Dr. Kristan Rodriguez
Dr. Kristan Rodriguez grew up in Anchorage, Alaska where she attended high school and college. She graduated with a degree in biology from the University of Alaska Anchorage in 2012. After college she moved to Texas where she attended the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio for dental school and spent an extra two years in the same post-graduate training program as Dr. Jim! This rigorous program is well known for advanced training in restorative dentistry, implant dentistry, periodontal surgery, and cosmetic dentistry utilizing modern technology. In addition to her residency, she completed Implant Preceptorship and IV Sedation training. After many years in school, she decided it was time to move to Portland which is much closer to family.
Dr. Rodriguez prides herself in providing the best care by practicing comprehensive dental care and becoming an advocate for her patient's overall health. Dr. Rodriguez maintains memberships in numerous professional societies including the Clackamas Dental Society, Oregon Dental Association , American Dental Association , Academy of General Dentistry, American Dental Society of Anesthesiology and the American Academy of Clear Aligners. She recently started and completed the first course at the Kois Center in Seattle, WA and is on track to complete the entire continuum over the next few years.
Dr. Rodriguez shares the same philosophy as Dr. Jim, which is to help the patients understand their treatment options, provide dental care consistent with the way we would treat friends and family, and meet the treatment needs and personal concerns of our patients.
Kristan and her husband have been married for 18 years. They have two boys, Mark and Emmett, who attend high school and middle school in Wilsonville, OR. When free time permits, she loves spending as much time with her kids as possible, gardening, jewelry making, and flying back to Alaska to go fishing. |
