A little about me (Dr. Coambs)…. I have earned my Charlotte, NC “citizenship” after having lived here more than 15 years! However, I lived in many places as a kid, including Milwaukee, London, Chicago, Omaha and Dallas. I graduated from Rice University, and then the University of Texas School of Dentistry – both in Houston, TX.

Then I came to Charlotte to complete my residency training at CMC Hospital (now Atrium Health). I fell in love with the Queen City during that year, and my husband and I decided to permanently relocate to North Carolina. Awesome decision!

After working for other dentists, I opened my own dental office in 2012 in the Arboretum area of south Charlotte. A year later, I earned the prestigious Fellowship Award from the Academy of General Dentistry – a.k.a. FAGD designation – signifying my commitment to continuing education. (Only 6% of general dentists have earned this honor!) I’ve also received a Charlotte Magazine Top Dentists Award 8+ years in a row: 2016-2023 so far. Outside of the office, I enjoy kickboxing at 9Round, eating good food, hiking in the mountains, and spending time with friends. But most of all, I love spending time with my three wonderful sons, my husband, and my extended family. They are my joy!
