Dr. Karen Wang
Dr. Karen Wang was born and raised in Southern California and has made her home in Washington. During college, she discovered that dentistry perfectly integrates her passion to help others with her natural skill & talent with arts & crafts. She began her dental journey as a surgical dental assistant, and continued her education at the University of Washington School of Dentistry. Go Dawgs!
During her time in dental school, Dr. Wang served as a student leader in the UW Chapter of the American Student Dental Association. She also performed research on ceramic veneers with our prosthodontist, Dr. Jeff Chen, won second place in a research competition, and recently published this article in the Journal of Taiwan Academy of Operative Dentistry. Dr. Wang spent significant time performing dental community service, mentoring underclassmen and graduated magna cum laude, top 10, in her class.
Dr. Wang loves to teach, and continues to mentor pre-dental students in their journeys towards becoming dentists. She is also dedicated to teaching patients more about understanding their oral health, and is happy to answer any questions patients may have.
In her free time, Dr. Wang enjoys playing video games, cooking, baking, watching movies, knitting, cosmetics, volunteering at church, reading, and walking her dog, Ollie.
