Dr Olesya Salathe’s story is a testament to resilience and innovation in the face of adversity and when you listen to our latest episode of Smile Business Diaries prepare to feel awed and inspired.
About Olesya
Dr Olesya Salathe was born in Russia and immigrated with her family when she was eight years old, seeking religious freedom. Her family eventually settled in Oregon, where she graduated from high school and worked as a dental assistant.
During her undergrad years, she developed a deep-seated passion for community service, influenced by the Quaker background of George Fox and the Ford Family Foundation's principles. Dr. Salathe purchased her first dental practice from Dr. Paul Puffer, her former high school job employer, and has since enjoyed giving back to the community that welcomed her. She earned the Gerald E. Bruce Award for her leadership and service to the community. Her volunteer work within the dental community has also been recognized and her dental professional peers nominated her for the prestigious membership to the American College of Dentists. It's the oldest major honorary organization of dentists that have exemplified excellence through outstanding leadership and exceptional contributions to dentistry and society. It's membership is by invitation only and has been given to only 3.5% of dentists nationwide in the United States.
In 2022, Dr. Salathe partnered with her sister to open a second location, a certified DSD clinic focused on comprehensive dental care, cosmetic, and full mouth rehabilitation. The location also includes a medical practice focused on injectables, wellness such as IV hydration, and medical weight loss.
She is a Kois-trained dentist, leads the local chapter of the American Academy of Clean Aligners Study Club, is a board member for the Oregon Dental Association, and was recently appointed to the Oregon Board of Dentistry. Dr. Salathe and her husband live on a 20-acre ranch with their two teenage children.
