COSMETIC, IMPLANT, AND FAMILY DENTISTRY

Hello! I’m Dr. Linchuan Wang, but you can call me Dr. Chan. I am honored to serve as the new practice leader at WoodCreek Family Dentistry, and I look forward to providing exceptional, compassionate care to you and your family.

I was born in China and graduated with top rank from Peking University—the #1 dental school in the country—where I earned the Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree and 3 years training in Orthodontics. After moving to the U.S., I continued my dental education at the University of Rochester in New York, where I completed two years of Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD), followed by a one-year General Practice Residency (GPR). I also earned a Master’s degree in Dental Science during my training there.

COSMETIC, IMPLANT, AND FAMILY DENTISTRY

Hello! I’m Dr. Linchuan Wang, but you can call me Dr. Chan. I’m honored to be the new owner of this dental practice and excited to care for you and your family.

I was born in China and graduated with top rank from Peking University—the #1 dental school in the country—where I earned the Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree and 3 years training in Orthodontics. After moving to the U.S., I continued my dental education at the University of Rochester in New York, where I completed two years of Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD), followed by a one-year General Practice Residency (GPR). I also earned a Master’s degree in Dental Science during my training there.

With over 10 years of clinical experience, I provide a wide range of dental care tailored to each patient’s needs—including preventive dentistry, restorative treatments, dentures, periodontal therapy, pediatric dentistry, root canal therapy, surgical extractions, Invisalign treatment, and cosmetic restorations. I’ve also completed advanced courses in root canal therapy, Invisalign, and surgical extractions to stay current with the latest techniques.

My goal is to deliver comfortable, painless, affordable, and high-quality dentistry that helps every patient achieve a healthy and confident smile.

I’m fluent in English and Mandarin, and speak some Spanish as well, which helps me connect with patients from diverse backgrounds. Outside the office, I enjoy reading, hiking, traveling, and exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest with my wife, Weiran, and our two young children, Joanna and Jonathan.

Thank you for trusting us with your care—I look forward to meeting you!

Warmly,
Dr. Linchuan (Chan) Wang

Meet Anne,

Office Manager, Front Office

Meet Anne, Office Manager, Front OfficeAs your Office Manager, I bring 27 years of dedicated experience working with dental patients and staff. 

I love enhancing your experience from your very first phone call through your final walk-out process. My goal is to provide a welcoming environment where you feel truly known and cared for, and where your dental concerns and questions are genuinely heard and addressed. For me, person-to-person connections and building up our team are incredibly important. 

I am a native Pacific Northwesterner, and my husband, Jack, and I have raised three children here. When I am not at work, you will find me attempting to beautify the world around me, whether in my own yard or within my family and church community.

Meet Susan

Registered Dental Hygienist

With 38 years of experience as a dental hygienist, I feel truly fortunate to have a career that allows me to make a difference in people’s lives. I love helping my patients care for their teeth and achieve healthy, confident smiles, but what I value most is the opportunity to build lasting relationships along the way. I believe that creating a comfortable, caring environment helps make every dental visit a more positive experience.

Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time with my husband and family, hiking, exercising, and getting lost in a good book—with my kitty happily curled up on my lap. I’m grateful for the wonderful people I’ve met throughout my career and look forward to welcoming each new patient with kindness, compassion, and a genuine desire to help.

Meet Alma, RDH

Registered Dental Hygienist

Hi, I’m Alma Lima, RDH. My journey in dentistry began over 19 years ago as a dental assistant. That experience shaped my approach to patient care and ultimately inspired me to become a Registered Dental Hygienist.

 My absolute favorite part of my job is building genuine relationships with my patients. I know that dental visits can feel overwhelming, so I focus heavily on patient education and comfort. I want to make oral health approachable and stress-free, ensuring you always leave my chair well-informed, and confident in your smile. 

I love connecting with people from all different backgrounds and am proud to care for our community in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. When I am not in the office, I am usually traveling, making memories, and spending quality time with my husband, two wonderful children and dog, Charlie. 

I can't wait to meet you at your next visit!

Meet Lynette, RDA

Registered Dental Assistant

I have been a dedicated Registered, Dental Assistant for over 40 years, and I am incredibly blessed to have spent more than three decades serving patients right here at our office. Every single day, I strive to bring unmatched proficiency, competence, and a whole lot of heart to our clinical team. 

To me, my patients are like family, and my favorite part of my job is building deep, lasting connections with you. I completely understand that coming to the dentist can feel scary and intimidating. That is why I use my gifts of listening, nurturing, and patient advocacy to ensure you feel entirely secure, cared for, and at ease during your visit. My gentle approach is a direct reflection of my Christian faith, which I proudly live out through my daily work.

When I am not helping create comfortable smiles, I put my business expertise to work as a licensed real estate broker. You can also frequently find me tending to my growing vegetable garden and greenhouse. 

At home, I am a proud mother of two and a deeply blessed "Gramma"—I treasure every quality minute I get to spend with my family. I also love traveling to exotic destinations around the globe, happily soaking in the breathtaking beauty of the world while cheering on my husband during his SCUBA diving adventures! 

Meet Tami, RDA

Registered Dental Assistant

Hi, I’m Tami! I am a Registered Dental Assistant, and I have had the privilege of working in the field of dentistry for over 32 years. I joined this wonderful practice in 2021, bringing with me decades of experience, deep clinical knowledge, and a genuine passion for providing compassionate patient care. 

What I love most about my work is making sure you feel completely comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for during your visit. I know that going to the dentist can feel stressful or overwhelming for many people. That is why I always take the extra time to listen to your needs, offer encouragement, and help ease any anxieties you might have. I strive to be a calm, reassuring presence that you can fully trust with your oral health. 

One of the most meaningful highlights of my career was participating in a dental mission trip to Haiti—an incredibly rewarding experience that I will always cherish. 

When I am not at the office keeping our patients smiling, I am usually soaking up quality time with my family. I am a proud wife and a mom of six. Some of our favorite family activities include watching football, hiking, and simply creating lasting memories together. At home, you can usually find me spending my free time out in the garden, cooking in the kitchen, or tending to my chickens. 

I look forward to meeting you at your next appointment and helping you achieve a healthy, happy smile!

Hi, I’m Inna!

Insurance Billing Coordinator

As the Insurance Billing Coordinator at Woodcreek Family Dentistry, I’ve had the joy of being part of this wonderful office family for the past 8 years. Navigating dental insurance can sometimes feel overwhelming, but I’m here to make things as simple and clear as possible! I bring deep attention to detail to every treatment plan and cost estimate so you can feel fully informed, confident, and genuinely cared for every step of the way.

Life at home is beautifully full and vibrant! My husband and I are blessed with six boys and two sweet girls. Coming from massive families ourselves—we have nine siblings on both sides!—we absolutely thrive on a busy calendar packed with big family gatherings, social events, and church commitments. When we have some downtime, you’ll find us soaking up the Pacific Northwest by hiking, camping, or getting out on the water. And in those rare, quiet moments to myself? I’m in the kitchen baking something yummy.

Meet Keri

Insurance Billing Coordinator, RDA

My dental career began in 2011 as a Registered Dental Assistant, which gave me a deep understanding of hands-on patient care. For the past nine years, I have been a proud part of this practice, transitioning into my current role as your Insurance Billing Coordinator. I know that navigating dental insurance can feel overwhelming, so I dedicate myself to making your benefits and financial options clear, transparent, and stress-free. To me, dentistry is always about people, not paperwork. My top priority is ensuring you feel heard, respected, and genuinely cared for every time you walk through our doors.

Outside the office, my world revolves around my husband and our two energetic boys. Being a wife and mom has taught me so much about patience and empathy—qualities I am grateful to bring to our patients every single day.

Meet Jenn, Sterilization Tech

Sterilization Tech

Hi, I’m Jenn! As our team's Sterilization Technician, I work behind the scenes to keep our patients safe, healthy, and protected. While you might not always see me sitting right by your side during an appointment, my top priority every single day is ensuring that our clinical environment meets the absolute highest standards of safety, cleanliness, and care. 

What I enjoy most about my role is being the backbone of the clinical flow. I manage our advanced sterilization technology and make sure every instrument and treatment room is prepared for our doctor and staff. The most rewarding part of my job is knowing that my meticulous attention to detail gives our patients total peace of mind during their visit. 

When I am away from the office, I like to spend time at the gym, hike, bake, read and serve in my church community. Fun fact about me: I climbed to the top of Mt. St. Helens when I was 10 years old! 

I am so grateful to be a part of this incredible dental family, and I look forward to supporting the team that takes such wonderful care of your smile! 

Veronica

Front Desk & Registered Dental Hygienist

I joined the practice in July 2026 and bring 2.5 years of experience in the dental field to the team. As a Registered Dental Assistant, I love blending my clinical knowledge with patient support. One of my favorite clinical areas is assisting with root canals, especially because it allows me to help patients find immediate relief. 

My true passion is seeing our patients smile. I know dental visits can be intimidating, so I make it my mission to put anxious or nervous patients at ease by kindly explaining their treatment steps throughout the entire appointment. My coworkers describe me as friendly, dedicated, and someone who absolutely loves the fall season!

 Outside of the office, you can find me hiking, walking, exploring new foods, and spending quality time with my husband. I am of Ukrainian and Russian descent, and in my free time, I love supporting local spots like Pho Fusion and Emish Market.
