Dr. Colin Taggart was born and raised in Portland, Ore. He spent his undergraduate years at the University of Puget Sound, majoring in biology and minoring in music. He then decided to spend two years working as a program leader with Portland’s Outdoor School Program before beginning his studies at the Oregon Health & Sciences University School of Dentistry. While in dental school, he gave much of his time to community health events and found a calling in serving those with the most limited access to basic health care. His general practice residency at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill afforded him the opportunity to further expand his scope of practice before coming home to the Pacific Northwest. When he’s not pursuing his passion of improving his community’s health, he may be rock climbing, making music, paragliding or learning Spanish.
