Jerry Brown, DDS

I am most passionate about being a dentist for real people, solving real problems in light of each individual’s situation. I am passionate for people who are hurting, who are scared, and who need more than just a dentist sometimes. I am passionate about personalized care.

I appreciate the value dentistry brings to my life: having the opportunity to help someone else on a daily basis is something I strive for. It is a win-win situation for me. Working with so many unique people is exciting and interesting, and no two days are ever alike. I pride myself on not being a cookie-cutter dentist: each of my patients has unique dental needs and goals. I try not to assume what a patient needs or wants; rather, I try to hear what the patient wants first. I think this is missing in the world and I try to do this each day as best I can.

Education and continuing education

  • Undergraduate degree – Lamar University
  • Doctorate of Dental Surgery – Baylor University College of Dentistry

My commitment to excellence in patient care extends beyond what I do in the office. I attend many hours of continuing education courses and seminars each year, enabling me to keep fresh on the basics and expand my knowledge of new techniques. I believe my patients deserve nothing less.

Professional affiliations

  • American Dental Association
  • Washington State Dental Association
  • Spokane District Dental Society

Outside the Office

I am a Montana boy from the mountains, and grew up in Bigfork. I have been blessed to have the most amazing family. Enola, my wife and best friend, and I have three children: Camille, Marissa, and Matthew. We also serve as foster parents. Our home wouldn’t be the same without our English bulldog, Bill Murray, and our crazy cat, Ders.

My free time is spent with all the amazing people in my life. I am humbled and honored to have the wonderful patients, coworkers, and friends that I do. When I have a moment, I enjoy reading, playing “Call of Duty” on Xbox, training for triathlons, traveling, and public speaking.

Colville is a unique town where you get to know everyone, and I am amazed at the talent and caliber of the residents. I go to Lifeline Ministries in Colville because I believe the Lord is at work there. I do what I can in the community as long as it’s meaningful and truly helps others.

I gave my heart to Jesus in 1994. Each day I strive toward the goal of knowing Jesus more and trying to listen to His teachings. I have learned that the more I know and do, the further I have to go.

I am passionate about the work I do and enjoy being able to make a difference in peoples’ lives. Patient comfort and care are my first priority. Every patient that sits in my chair, I view them as if they were a part of my own family and treat them as such.

I completed my undergraduate education at Eastern Washington University and graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. I then moved to Phoenix, Arizona where I earned my Doctorate of Dental Medicine degree at Midwestern University College of Dental Medicine Arizona. At school, we were kept up to date on the latest technology and techniques. As a dentist, I understand that not everybody’s needs are identical and patients need to be treated as such. I have extensive experience in crown and bridge, oral surgery, endodontics and look to continue expanding my implant knowledge. I am also a member of the American Dental Association.

I was born in Walla Walla, Washington. My family moved around a little before settling in Tri-Cities, Washington where I spent majority of my life growing up. In my free time I enjoy hiking, golfing, being out on the water, skiing and spending time with my family. After having lived in Phoenix, I look forward to being in a small mountain town. I am excited for the opportunity ahead of me and look forward to providing quality dental care for you.
