Born and raised in Portland, Dr. Lisa Kakishita is an Oregon original. She attended Glencoe High School, Oregon State University and Oregon Health and Science University. Dr. Lisa is an active member of many dental associations, including: American Dental Association, Oregon Dental Association, Multnomah Dental Society, and the Academy of General Dentistry.
Being involved with the community is important to Dr. Lisa. Currently, she has started a project to donate household goods and clothing to families in the area. Other recent projects include: volunteering at the Oregon Mission of Mercy, a 2-day event that provided access to free critical dental care (totaling over 1.2 million dollars), donating hair to Locks of Love which provides hairpieces to children afflicted with hair loss due to medical conditions, and organizing clothing exchange events that benefit local non-profits.
Before Dr. Lisa and her husband had kids, they enjoyed traveling, wine tasting, snow skiing, and going out to all of the unique restaurants Portland has to offer. Their favorite restaurants included Ned Ludd, OX and Saint Jack. Now they find themselves eating an awful lot of Chipotle, Hot Lips Delivery, and any restaurant with a kids menu, as they try to keep up with their 3 kids (a 2nd grader and twin toddlers).
Dr. Lisa enjoys being a part of Aspire Dental because of the great patients and staff. Work is always fun thanks to a great music playlist and friendly, caring staff that not only excels at what they do, but have a great sense of humor! |
