After exploring software engineering, Braden was drawn to healthcare by the opportunity to make a more direct impact on others. He’s especially interested in medical technology, learning more about the dental field, and getting involved in patient care whenever possible.

We’re excited to have Braden bring his technical background, curiosity, and willingness to learn to the PSEA team. Welcome, Braden! 🦷

🎉 She’s Back! Please join us in welcoming Stephanie back to the Puget Sound Endodontic Associates family! 🎉
After a brief detour working remotely in insurance, Stephanie realized how much she missed the vibrant environment, our wonderful team, and—most importantly—our patients. Here is a quick look at her journey and why we are so thrilled to have her back:
🌼Deep Expertise: Over 12 years of medical and dental experience in billing, contracting, and front desk operations.
🌼PSEA Roots: She previously worked her way up from our front desk to Operations Coordinator.
🌼Patient-First Focus: She loves independent dentistry because it allows for genuine, one-on-one patient care and community connection.
🌼Local at Heart: Born and raised in Poulsbo, she loves the Pacific Northwest more than anywhere else.
When she isn't helping our practice run smoothly, Stephanie stays busy spending quality time with her husband and two kids, cheering at baseball games, and staying active in her local church.
💙Welcome home, Stephanie! We are so glad you are back doing what you love. 💙
