Meet Dr. Lisa Austin
Q: Why did you decide to become a dentist?
A: After a career day my junior year of high school. The dentists talked about how nice it was to be in a profession that both helped people and was flexible with their schedules.
Q: Did you have a favorite dentist when you were a kid?
A: My own dentist, Dr. Pike, in Portland. I always enjoyed going to his office; they made it welcoming and fun.
Q: If you could be a tooth, which one would you be?
A: I don’t know, but it would be important for me to be in line with the others. :)
Q: What is your favorite flavor of toothpaste?
A: Colgate is my favorite brand.
Q: If you could live anywhere, where would it be?
A: Having just moved to Bend, I would say this is pretty perfect. Santa Barbara and the Mediterranean are other favorites, maybe in retirement!
Q: If you could be the dentist to any famous person, who would it be?
A: Kiera Knightly or Kirsten Dunst. When I see their teeth, I think about how big of a difference it would make if they were straight!
Q: Do you have a favorite childhood toy?
A: I really liked stuffed animals; a big bear named Sarah was my favorite.
Q: Where did you grow up?
A: Beaverton, OR
Q: Mountains or beaches?
A: Beaches! Mountains are nice too, but water always wins for me.
