Thank you for the opportunity to serve as your president this past year. I’m excited to see the seeds we are planting grow and mature over time for the benefit of current and future WSDA members.

One thing is clear when you meet Dr. John Gibbons, the incoming WSDA president: He lives life to the fullest. But the one thing he’s most passionate about doesn’t involve wild animals, exotic travel or fast engines. It’s something far more complex and unpredictable. It’s dental advocacy.

Congratulations to Matt French, who was granted honorary WSDA membership after 20 years of service to the Association and Washington Dentists' Insurance Agency (WDIA).

Have you ever been placed in an insurance network without your knowledge? WSDA wants to hear about your experience through our network leasing survey.

Join dentists from across the state on Friday, Jan. 27 as Dental Action Day returns in person in Olympia. One profession, one voice!

Share your dental workforce challenges through the Fall 2022 WA Health Sentinel Survey. Survey results will be shared with key policymakers and other stakeholders to inform the policy development and funding decisions impacting our vital health workforce.
