Dr. Becky V Coombs

Meet Dr. Becky
Dr. Becky Van Gemert Coombs, DDS was raised in Spokane the second of five children. She attended Gonzaga Prep and the University of Washington, spending her summers both nannying and working in an orthodontic office where her tremendously rewarding experiences in patient care ultimately led to the desire to become a dentist. Dr. Becky graduated from the University of Michigan School of Dentistry in 2002 and worked as a general dentist until 2008. Throughout this time, she particularly enjoyed working with children and decided to further her training by completing a residency in pediatric dentistry through the University of Washington.
Dr. Becky is currently a member of the American Dental Association, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, the Washington State Dental Association, the Washington State Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, and the Spokane District Dental Society. In addition to her clinical duties, Dr. Becky also enjoyed her time as a clinical instructor …at the Eastern Washington University Hygiene School. Her current research interest involves early access, a plan designed to facilitate dental visits for all children before the age of one as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentists. She also continues to be active in the community and has volunteered for the Ronald McDonald Care Mobile and Give Kids a Smile.
Dr. Becky is tremendously excited to be settling in her native Spokane with her husband, Cody, and Cocker Spaniel, Knuckles. She takes immense pleasure in the many outdoor activities and natural beauty of the Inland Northwest and may often be found at the lake surrounded by family.
