Dr. Alice grew up in Springfield, OR, where her father was a dentist (Dr. Richard L. Moffitt) and her uncle was a long-time family physician (Dr. Robert A. Moffitt).

Dr. Alice attended the University of Oregon, where she met her husband and dental practice partner Dr. Paul Newman. She received a Bachelor of Arts from the UO in 1981.

Dr. Alice Moffitt, my dentist for more than 20 years, is extremely skillful, thoughtful, and conscientious. She makes dentistry as comfortable for the patient as can be, and she and all her staff are friendly, experienced, and attentive. I recommend Alice to anyone who is 'between' dentists and wants a great one!

Dr. Paul hails from Tualatin, OR, and was an active member of a Boy Scout troop that took monthly camping and backpacking tripsrain, sleet or shine. He graduated from Tigard High School in 1974 and received a Bachelor of Arts in Biology from the University of Oregon in 1980, having worked his way through college with seasonal jobs in the US Forest Service. After graduating from the Oregon Health Sciences University Dental School in Portland in 1985 with Dr. Alice, they joined the US Naval Dental Corps. Dr. Paul had extensive training in oral surgery, which he performed almost exclusively during his time at Pearl Harbor Dental Clinic in Hawaii. Since moving to Eugene and returning to private practice in 1992, Dr. Paul volunteered monthly for the Childrens Dental Clinic.

Drs. Moffitt and Newman have kept me chewing pain free for the past 25 years, through cracked teeth, chips, splits, and cavities. Theyre both everything you want in a dentist: careful, efficient, knowledgeable, gentle, and supremely skilled. And theyre supported by an equally capable and caring staff. Everyone is so friendly, I actually enjoy going to the dentist! How twisted is that?
