Dr. Mikes dad, Dr. Dan Barrett, greatly influenced his decision to go into the field of dentistry. When Dr. Mike bumped a front tooth as a teenager, he ended up needing a root canal, which his dad performed. As part of the procedure, his dad gave him an injection and Dr. Mike didn't even know! The whole process was so easy and painless that it left a lasting impression on him.
Since almost half of the population fears going to the dentist, Dr. Mike is dedicated to providing others with the same gentle care he received from his dad. Dr. Mike had the opportunity to work alongside his dad for two yearsbefore he retired in 2016and tries to emulate his dads gentle technique and kind disposition.
Dr. Mike grew up in Whatcom County. After graduating from Meridian High School, he attended Brigham Young University. Dr. Mike then completed his dental training at the University of Nevada Las Vegas School of Dental Medicine, graduating in 2014 near the top of his class. He is professionally affiliated with the American Dental Association, the Washington State Dental Association, and the Mount Baker District Dental Society. In 2017, he became certified in oral sedationoffering patients with dental anxiety a stress-free dental experience.
Dr. Doug Ross graduated from the University of Louisville School of Dentistry in 2001. In 1996, he graduated with a degree in Civil Engineering at Brigham Young University. He worked as a Civil Engineer in Bellingham prior to attending dental school in Kentucky.
Dr. Ross grew up in Utah and is the fifth of seven children. He enjoys playing most sports and played basketball at Dixie State College. He and his wife have six children. He is active in numerous church and community activities. When he is not playing with his kids, he can usually be found working in the yard.
Dr. Ross attends several seminars each year and enjoys studying the newest techniques that continue to improve the way he cares for his patients. He has over 300 hours of implant training. He has found family dentistry very enjoyable. 'It is incredibly rewarding to have patients who were previously self-conscious about their teeth leave our office with a new confidence in their own smile.'

Two days ago I visited the clinic after pretty much ignoring my teeth for about five years. Of course I was a little nervous, but the staff was really friendly and competent. I was really impressed by their professionalism and meticulous care. I know I am in good hands.

After suffering a lifelong fear of dentists, I'm finally able to get regular dental care because of the compassion and professionalism of Dr. Mike and the staff of the Everson Dental Clinic. Services like conscious sedation have been a game-changer for me and made it possible for me to finally overcome my visceral fear. I am so grateful to have found this place.

I went in for my regular annual check-up. The dentist, Dr. Ross, found a small cavity and was able to fill it while I was there. Both the dentist and his assistant, Jodi, were so friendly and considerate. We've been going to Everson Dental Clinic since we moved to Whatcom County. A good friend recommended them.

I love your clinic, that is why my father in law, my late husband and myself have been driving from Blaine for many years. The only thing I would mention is that cutting the cleaning appointments back to half hour seemed a little rushed. Although Robyn did a great job, as usual I felt 45 minutes would be better.
