Dr. Kerry O’Bannon

Dr. Kerry O’Bannon I completed dental school at the University of Washington in 2023 and recently finished my pediatric dentistry residency at the UW Center for Pediatric Dentistry in 2025.

I was born and raised in the Washington, D.C. area and earned my undergraduate degree in biology. I’ve dreamed of becoming a pediatric dentist since I was three years old! Before dental school, I worked as a dental assistant — an experience that confirmed my love for this field.

When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll usually find me in the kitchen testing and developing baking recipes. I’m really looking forward to getting to know the Wenatchee community and beginning this next chapter with you all!
