Jacqueline Tuazon, DDS
Dr. Tuazon is originally from the Philippines and moved to Kennewick, WA in 1990 until she graduated from Kamiakin High School.
She graduated from University of Washington with a Bachelor of Science in Biology, and a minor in chemistry. She worked for her sister, who is a dentist in California, for 2 years. She learned first-hand to be an office manager, billing administrator, treatment planner, and dental assistant. She then attended NYU College of Dentistry, where she earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery. She went through residency at Montefiore Medical Center in Bronx, NY.
She began practice in 2008 in Washington. Since coming back to Washington, she has been volunteering as a dentist in Kennewick for Grace Clinic. After she practiced with several different offices, she finally found a home with Affordable Dental Care in 2013.
In her free time, Dr. Tuazon enjoys amateur photography, baking, and dancing.
