Stone Creek Dental Care. Helping the Walla Walla community to Smile with Confidence.
Dr. Patty Martin grew up in Sumner, WA where she decided at the age of 15 she wanted to be a dentist someday. She attended Washington State University for her undergraduate studies, where she was a cheerleader and became a die-hard Cougar fan while studying Biochemistry and Spanish. She also was able to spend a semester abroad in Spain to master the Spanish language and better serve her future patients. Upon graduating she returned to her hometown and worked as a flight attendant for Alaska Airlines, allowing her to see the world and work on her customer service skills, which she learned is of upmost importance in any industry.
She then attended the University of Washington School of Dentistry where she was part of a specialized group who received additional training in serving the needs of rural communities, as well as working interprofessionally to provide the best overall care for her patients. She completed a four-month externship in Okanogan, WA at a public health clinic, which cemented the fact that she wanted to be in a smaller town. She is excited for this opportunity in Walla Walla and cannot wait to get involved in the community and begin her career in private practice.
In Dr. Patty’s spare time she enjoys getting outdoors with her husband, Mike and their dog, Jack. She also enjoys gardening, cooking, and spending time with friends and family.
