Hometown roots, big-city training
Dr. Kaci's compassion and innate ability to nurture led her to the health care profession. Building relationships while providing gentle, nurturing dentistry has been the heart of her career ever since.
A proud Turlock High Bulldog, she participated in softball, tennis, and cross country before heading to California State University, Fresno, where she earned her degree in Kinesiology and Biomechanics as a proud Fresno State Bulldog. She then pursued dentistry at the University of the Pacific's Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco, one of the country's most respected programs.
Dr. Kaci always knew she wanted to come home. Providing dental care in her hometown was the plan from the beginning, and it is exactly what she has built: a practice where patients are known by name and cared for like family.
Her commitment reaches beyond Turlock. Through the Christian Medical and Dental Association, Dr. Kaci has traveled overseas to care for patients without access to dentistry. "Giving back to the community, as well as overseas, keeps everything in perspective."
Away from the office, Dr. Kaci balances life with her husband Dustin, their boys Baron and Ellis, and their little girl Blythe. Above all she values quiet time with family and friends.
