Cortney
Registered Dental Hygienist
Hello, I'm Cortney and I am thrilled to be your dental hygienist at West Sound Dentistry! Born and raised in King County, I am a proud graduate of the UW Shoreline Dental Hygiene Program. As a detail-oriented individual, passionate about the oral-systemic health connection, I strive to provide each patient with customized oral hygiene education that will empower them to achieve and maintain optimum health. I value holistic, integrative approaches to oral health through lifestyle coaching and healing the root cause of disease using the most current evidence-based therapeutic methods. I want to know more about you, your oral health goals, and how that connects to your overall wellness. I look forward to working with you and your family to help you achieve your healthiest smile and self! In November 2023, I relocated to Kitsap with my family. I am the mother to a spunky, beautiful, and intelligent little girl, and have a wonderful and supportive boyfriend who is a native to this beautiful part of the PNW. We live here in Poulsbo and love going on adventures to local restaurants, nature walks, and watching Master Chef Jr.
Blakely

Hi, I'm Blakely! I love spending quality time with my family and friends. I enjoy staying active with running, playing sports (especially soccer), yoga and hiking. Other hobbies include watching movies, painting, reading books, knitting, and taking film and digital photographs. I am passionate about the dental field and aspire to be a dentist one day.
Joan
Certified Dental Assistant
Greetings! I'm Joan and I have been working as a Registered Dental Assistant since 2021 after graduating from the Bremerton Dental Assisting School. In 2023, I achieved certification by the Dental Assisting National Board. Patients bring a smile to my face every work day and it's my personal goal to make them smile, share a laugh, and get them comfortable in that operatory chair! Before my interest in dentistry, I worked for decades in the publishing and marketing field as an Art Director. When not with my fabulous work family, I'm at home with my husband and daughter -- creating, hiking, kayaking, and living our best lives on beautiful Bainbridge Island!
Brook
Patient Care Coordinator / Registered Dental Assistant
Hi -- my name is Brook! As the daughter of a Port Townsend dentist, I was raised in the dental field and from a young age knew I wanted to follow a similar career path. Recently, my family and I uplifted our roots to purchase our first home in Bremerton to be closer to work and family. Outside of the office, I spend most of my days chasing after my two sweet little boys (Hudson and Lincoln) with my husband, along with three boisterous boy dogs. I enjoy precious family time, going camping, shopping, and yes-- cleaning!
Melissa
Financial Coordinator
When you open the front door to West Sound Dentistry, you're likely to see me first! I'm Melissa. Born and raised in Kitsap County, I've been on staff at West Sound Dentistry since 2021, helping patients navigate (the somewhat complicated) world of dental insurance and payments. When I'm not behind the front desk translating Treatment Plans, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our two little ones, and our dog, Kuma. My favorite pastimes are reading, baking, watching movies, and attempting to garden.
