I grew up in Corvallis, OR where my dad had a dental practice. In high school I played football and tennis. I attended college at Brigham Young University in Provo, UT where I met my wife. I went to dental school at Creighton University, which is the same school my father attended. While in school my wife and I had our three kids.
I grew up around dentistry my entire life with my father and uncle being dentists and my grandfather being an orthodontist. It feels like home to me. My inspiration came from seeing a young girl my father saw as an emergency patient on the weekend whom I was able to follow with him over many years.. She was kicked in the face by a horse and I was ultimately able to see her several times while working in the office over the next 10 years and saw her through definitive treatment. It showed me what type of person I wanted to be in dentistry.
The day I was accepted to dental school changed my life. I still remember that day and have the email saved on December 1, 2014. I have worked diligently to make that dream a reality since I was a kid and it was finally going to become a reality.
Phenomenal doctor and staff. They take the time to make sure you're comfortable and that you understand every single step along the way. Very flexible, thorough and very understanding. Absolutely amazing with children too!
Every single person in that office was nothing but smiles and kind words. Dr Woods made sure to explain every option available, what it would look like, time frames, even what my insurance might cover. I feel they went above and beyond. Made me feel extremely comfortable and sooo easy to talk to! Even the receptionist took time to print out different quotes and break down the information, very consoling and make you feel welcome. Highly recommend!
Had to have a molar extracted & was very nervous. Dr. Wood was so very patient with me explaining exactly what I would feel, kept asking me if I was okay during the process. It was painless & quite fast. He is the dentist you want to see about your teeth! Excellent staff also!!
Had a personal dental emergency and ended up going here based on others reviews (and the fact they could get me in) I am extremely glad I did, instantly relieved. Olympic family dental has some of the friendliest people Ive encountered in one office, the doc was thorough, quick and honest (quick being a high priority for myself) I would highly recommend Olympic family dental services to anyone.
Amazing staff. I went here for the first time after I hadnt been to a dentist in years. They took great care of me and answered all my silly questions. They treated me like family. They explained everything so well to me. They will from now on be my primary dentist! I highly recommend this wonderful dental team!
First time visit with Dr. Parker Wood and his practice, after my being a patient with Dr. Tomlinson for a few years. Everyone friendly, my procedure was carefully explained and carried out, and my questions were all answered to my satisfaction. Looking forward to my follow-up and future visits.
Great staff. Erika is amazing. So sweet and she keeps you informed of everything that is going on while cleaning. My family has been going there since 2014. They have always been great. Dr. Wood appears to be a good dentist a bit eager to promote extras. But in the end he always leaves the choice to the patient. My family will be forever patients.
Dr. Wood and his staff were excellent!! What a positive environment while dealing with my dental emergency! From the moment I called with a broken tooth needing immediate care I was treated like family! I felt completely safe and assured that all would be well! From the warm friendly front office staff through the very capable dental assistant and Dr. Wood himself each one of you are to be. Commended!!! Thank you so very much! I will definitely be recommending you to everyone I know Absolutely the best dental experience I have ever had!
The 'Cheers ' of dentistry, where they always know your name.... and family.... and oral health needs. Dr Tomlinson 's office succeeds in making everyone feel like they are part of their family. They are incredibly professional and caring. A real asset to the community! They provide services that rival anything you can get elsewhere, including larger metro areas. Happy Holidays to everyone and thank you for always being there for my families dental needs!
Dr. Tomlinson has been our family dentist for 30 plus years. In that time, he has done extensive work for me including an implant, root canals, crowns and numerous fillings. His work has always been professionally and beautifully done. Several times, he has referred me to specialists in Olympia for difficult root canals or as in the case of the implant, additional surgery required. He is meticulous in his endeavors and most gracious in dealing with me as a patient. He always responds well to my inquisitive nature and answers questions in detail as requested.Moreover, he is without a doubt, the best dentist I have ever had for administering a numbing injection. I swear this man has mastered the technique for painless injection by slightly stimulating surrounding tissue that negates injection pain. Even the specialists in Olympia could not recently match his injection skills.I am always impressed that he is up on the latest technology and invests considerable money in more school for himself, new techniques of practice , and new machines or instruments. He has a new machine/computer that takes a three dimensional view of a tooth to be crowned and photographs an exact fit which is then produced by a lab Dr. Tomlinson employs.His assistants are thoroughly competent and work well together in providing the best possible hygienic care. They like their patients and it is apparent that they like and respect each other as well. They depend upon each other with choosing color matches for crown replacements to surrounding teeth color or for second opinions when wished. There is a most cordial and respectful manner from the front desk throughout the facility. I recommend Dr. Tomlinson without reservation of any kind. He is a most kind, considerate and professional dentist.
Im originally from Spokane but loving this side of the state. Im a mother of four kids two boys and two girls. In my spare time, I enjoy being outside with my family, exploring the outdoors and playing sports. I also love to read and bake.
I love dentistry. I love the interaction I get and information I learn from people from all walks of life. I enjoy the opportunity to help people, work one on one, and making a difference with a smile. I genuinely care about those I work with as well as my patients. I try to adapt the experience for all I see trying to make patients feel educated, at ease, and cared for. Also, this job is flexible for being a mom, which is my top priority.
