Meet Dr. Andrew
Dr. Andrew J. Smith–
I was born and raised in Klamath Falls. I attended Klamath Union High School and each fall I still get excited for the Canal Bowl. I attended Oregon State University and graduated Summa Cum Laude with a B.S. in Microbiology and minors in Chemistry and Spanish. I attended dental school at Oregon Health Sciences University and graduated with Honors. In 2008 I moved back to Klamath Falls and joined my father, Dr. T. Alexander Smith in practice.
In my free time I enjoy cycling, fishing, and playing guitar. My favorite thing to do is spend time with my wife Brooke, and our daughter Audrey.
Professionalism and continuing education are very important to me. I am an active member of the American Dental Association, the Oregon Dental Association, and the Klamath Dental Society. I also belong to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry and the Academy of General Dentistry. Each year I attend numerous hands-on continuing education courses and am always striving to learn more and improve for my patients.
Meet Dr. Nicholas
Dr. Nicholas Smith–
I was born and raised in Klamath Falls, OR and graduated from Klamath Union in 2002. After high school I attended Oregon State University and went on to graduate from OHSU School of Dentistry in 2010. I worked as a public health dentist for seven years before joining a group practice in Portland, OR. While in Portland, I met my wife Jade. We now have two young sons.
I’m very excited to return to my hometown and join my brother Andrew. I love dentistry and really enjoy connecting with my patients. My goal is to make each appointment easy and enjoyable. I look forward to joining this team and meeting all of our patients.
Have you ever heard of a child that enjoys going to the dentist? I haven’t known anything different – even after he has had shots in his gums, teeth pulled and now wears braces. My son is now 12 and still looks forward to his every-six-month visits. Dr. Smith calls my son by name and remembers that at his last visit he was looking forward to a basketball tournament. My son desires to impress his dentist with excellent oral hygiene because Dr. Smith is quick to tell him when his teeth are looking great.
Dr. Smith’s hygienists remember my son as well and ask about a vacation we took in between our six month visits. They intentionally remember details, such as History is still his favorite subject in school.
When we go to the dentist, we expect that we’re going to receive professional, expert treatment and encouragement to take good care of our teeth. We regularly receive what one would not normally expect – personal attention and an actual friendship with our dentist and his staff. Dr. Smith’s office is quite a win for Klamath Falls!
