Dr. Ron Ko is originally from the far Pacific Northwest (PNW), Anchorage, Alaska. He moved down to Seattle to attend the University of Washington for undergrad and left the rain to obtain his dental degree at the Arizona School of Dentistry and Oral Health.
Dr. Ko is well versed in all areas of dentistry and is constantly partaking in continuing education to expand his knowledge of the field. He has extensive training in implants and root canals as well as fixed and removable prosthodontics (dentures, crowns, bridges). He is also very well connected with an elite group of local dental specialists (i.e. orthodontists, oral surgeons, endodontists, prosthodontists, periodontists) for any cases that may need additional love and attention.
When Dr. Ko is not at his practice, he can be seen with his family outdoors at public parks, museums, and zoos. When he is not with his family, you'll find him with a group of friends watching football, basketball, or playing a round of golf. He enjoys traveling, learning about different cultures, and searching for tasty meals.
Marcy has been a part of the 12 Dentistry team since 2001. Her well-rounded dental education includes training as a dental hygienist, dental assistant, and dental lab technician. Marcy loves her job because she enjoys developing personal connections with her patients.

A native of Toms River, NJ, Colleen grew up close to the beach and definitely misses the ocean, but she has been in the PNW for 10 years and loves living here. Some of her favorite hobbies include weekend trips with her husband and pup, cooking and entertaining at home, woodworking and other creative projects, going to the gym, planning/organizing events, and of course, constant FaceTime calls with her family, most of who still live on the east coast.

My family loves Dr Robert Wiggins DDS & ALL his staff! We have gone there for many years. Four generations of our family are patients at their office. I know a lot of people fear going to the dentist, but that's not the case there! The staff are very knowledgeable, gentle & kind always! I promise you, you will always feel welcome & in good hands when you call or visit their office.

It has been several years since I've been to the dentist, mostly due to my experiences with dental in the military. This was something completely different; it was the most pleasant and painless experience in a dental office I've had in 20 years.

I imagine it would be difficult to find a better dental office than Dr. Robert Wiggins and crew. Dr Bob is very skilled and has a gentle touch with the needle and the drill when needed and your comfort is his top priority. Along with the supporting cast of Debra, Jill, Melissa, and Debbie, you can't go wrong....make an appointment today!

My family and I have been with Dr. Wiggins for over 25 years. I would never go anywhere else. He is always there when needed, on time for appointments, his staff is friendly and personable. He was my boy's first dentist and is still today. Would recommend 100%.

My wife and I have been going to Dr. Wiggins for several years now he and his staff are always friendly and professional. Very good with children which is a plus. It's like going for a visit to catch up every 6 months and you get a dental exam too.
