Dr Kris Kuchenmeister
Kris Kchenmeister, DDS, also known as "Dr. K," became interested in dentistry in Junior High School after having "the coolest dentist." He thought, "If my dentist is that awesome, then I want to be a dentist too." In High School, Dr. K decided to learn more and "shadowed" a dentist for credit so he could learn more. His initial desire became solidified and he knew he wanted to be a dentist. Dr. K loves meeting new patients and providing solutions to their "problems." He finds it rewarding to have patients say that they love their new smile.
Dr. K and his wonderful wife, Ashley, met in college. Dr. K, like Dr. Hill, graduated from the University of Southern California. He and his wife now have 3 wonderful boys, which is a big help when it comes to working with children as a dentist.
Since Dr. K is 6 feet 5 inches tall, he has always enjoyed playing basketball, with the highlight being when he and his High School team won the State Championship in Washington. Dr. K grew up in a small town and came to love the outdoors. He enjoys camping, hiking, fishing, and most any outdoor and water sport.
