Dr. Scott Shumway graduated from the University of Maryland Dental School in 2010 and entered directly into a residency for advanced training in oral and IV sedation dentistry, oral surgery, periodontics, endodontics, pediatric dentistry, and prosthodontics and restorative dentistry. Following the residency he continued serving in the United States Air Force Dental Corps where he received additional training, expanded his skills and learned the latest techniques in dentistry. During this time he received several awards including being named Clinical Dentist of the Year from Air Mobility Command. Dr. Scott is very thankful for his time in the Air Force and the opportunity to care for the troops that serve our country.
Dr. Scott knows that the best approach to dentistry is a conservative and preventive approach with patient care to achieve the best possible outcome. Dr. Scott feels very fortunate to have met Dr. Trantow, the team and you, his patients! He is as committed to serving the patients of his practice as he was when serving in the United States Air Force.
When Dr. Scott isnt caring for patients, he spends as much time as possible with his wife, Lis, and their four children. Theyre excited to raise their family in beautiful Spokane. They enjoy many outdoor activities and actively participate in church and community responsibilities. Dr. Scott enjoys golfing with his oldest children, Brooklyn and Andy, playing Uno with Macie and Gavin and family Caf Rio dates.
I graduated from Dental Assisting School in 2005 from Spokane Community College. I have worked at a couple different offices but nothing compares to working for Dr. Shumway and being a part of his team. I truly enjoy being a part of a team that takes good care of patients and treats them like family.
I love my job, and forming lasting friendships with my patients in the best part-in addition to providing the best care possible. I am blessed to be a part of Dr. Shumways team: caring professionals that treat everyone with respect and kindness.
At Dr. Shumways office I love being a part of the fun, friendly and family type environment. We have a strong commitment to making it possible for our patients to smile! We often are able to do things for our patients that they did not believe were possible and I love it!
