Established in 1989.

After graduating from the University of Washington School of Dentistry in 1984, Dr Thacker served three years as a dentist at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, TX. Shortly after returning back to the Pacific Northwest, Dr Thacker purchased Appletree Cove Dental Center from Dr Patrick Barrett in 1989. At that time the practice was located two doors down from its current location on Illinois Avenue. Seven years later in 1996, Dr Thacker’s practice relocated to the new building which was designed to better serve the growing practice and accommodate specific patients’ needs.

Inspired at Gonzaga Prep High School in Spokane to study the sciences, I graduated with honors from Washington State University with a degree in Microbiology and Public Health. After earning my dental degree from the University of Washington School of Dentistry, I began practicing dentistry as a Captain in the USAF at Lackland in San Antonio, Texas/​While in the service, I completed additional training through oral surgery and periodontal rotations. In 1989 I returned to the Northwest and began practicing in Kingston. I love dentistry as a profession and am rewarded daily in seeing generations of families coming to me for their dental care. I’m married to my wife, T.C. and have a daughter, Shannon, a son, Ben, and a golden retriever named Hogan.
