Robin E. Reinke, DDS, MPA
Robin E. Reinke, DDS, MPA, will join us this summer as the Associate Dean for Clinical Affairs. Dr. Reinke was born and raised in Tacoma and is looking forward to returning “home” to Washington State. She received her BS in Biology from the University of Puget Sound and her DDS from the University of Washington School of Dentistry. After practicing as a dentist for 22 years, her service on the WA State Dental Quality Assurance Commission prompted her to complete a Master’s of Public Administration with an emphasis in Health Services and ADEA’s Institute for Teaching and Learning. Three years later, she took a full-time faculty position at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas School of Dental Medicine. During her 11 years at UNLV-SDM, she reached Professor-in-Residence and Associate Dean for Outpatient Clinics.
We are very excited to have Dr. Reinke at PNWU-SDM.
