Meet Dr. Andrew Gilbreath
My commitment to the Northwest spans my entire life. A native of Kingston, I developed an early affection for everything our unique corner of the world offers. After obtaining my undergraduate degree in Psychology from the University of Washington in 2003, I gained acceptance at one of the nation’s top dental schools on the same campus. I earned a Doctorate of Dental Surgery degree from UW School of Dentistry in 2007.
After working in several community clinics, I found a perfect fit in Burien when I joined Dr. Craig in 2008. We enjoyed a dynamic working relationship until Dr. Craig’s retirement eleven years later, and I consider him a friend and mentor. The practice’s tradition of warm, personal service continues today with recent innovative updates to provide the ultimate patient experience.
Continuous improvement marks my journey, including dedication to world-class advanced training at the Kois Center in Seattle and CDOCS classes in Scottsdale. I pursue team growth with our dental practice coach, Debbie Richardson, and her team at TRG. Advanced training in CAD-CAM, CBCT, implant- supported dentistry, soft tissue laser care, and metal-free orthodontics are just a few of my ongoing educational pursuits. I’m humbled to be chosen a Seattle Met Top Dentist every year since 2014, and I will continue to develop the best skills for my patients.
Staying Connected
I married the love of my life, Rachel, in 2017, and we enjoy living in Normandy Park with our son, Harry, daughter, Louisa, and labradoodle, Wally. In fact, Wally often comes to the dental practice and many patients look for him: He will be ready to greet you with a wagging tail with our admin team members. An avid sports fan, I love supporting the Seahawks, Mariners, and University of Washington teams. I also keep active by playing softball, boating, and snow skiing. Rachel and I like to travel, attend concerts, and try new restaurants, so be sure to bring your best tips to share!
It’s my honor to serve our area and develop relationships with so many special people and colleagues. Our team supports many events and activities in the Burien community, and I look forward to partnering with more local organizations over time. Our team has sponsored a wide variety of causes including the Burien Pride Festival and the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society through the Big Climb. I’m also an annual contributor to the Highline School District Scholar-Athlete Scholarship. It’s my pleasure to support our dynamic community!
