We strive to partner with our patients to help educate them about their dental health and the close connection it has with their general health so they can make the best decisions for their smiles.
We look forward to getting to know you, and we invite you to get to learn more about us here.
Dr. Tamara Holliday
Dr. Holliday completed her dental training at the University of Washington School of Dentistry. Prior to attending dental school, she earned a BS in biology and a BA in psychology from Brandeis University in Massachusetts and worked in Seattle’s biotech field. While her work in the lab eventually benefitted people’s health and well-being, she desired to have a more direct impact.
She fell in love with dentistry through volunteer work alongside many wonderful dental professionals providing care for the underserved and homeless. Seeing the patient interaction and joy those dentists took in their work confirmed to Dr. Holliday that this was the profession for her. She continues to be dedicated to providing compassionate and gentle care for all her patients.
Dr. Holliday is originally from the Island of Oahu, Hawaii, and has made Seattle her home since 2001.
In her free time, she enjoys cooking, listening to music, playing tennis, strength training and yoga, and traveling the world. Dr. Holliday loves spending time outdoors exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest with her husband, young twin daughters, and sweet black Labs.
