Meet the Doctor
Dr. Erika Takanami, DDS
Dr. Erika was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan. She moved to the state of Iowa and went through a high school exchange program and decided to stay in Iowa to complete her education. Throughout her life in the United States, she has traveled around, and she and her fiance, Kyle, fell in love with the Pacific Northwest. They have decided to call Vancouver, Washington their new home.
Dr. Erika and Kyle have two Labrador retrievers that love swimming and hiking. Their dogs know commands in English, Japanese and American Sign Language! Dr. Erika and Kyle like to stay outdoors spending a lot of time with their dogs. They also love working out and finding good restaurants to try. You might find them at a gym, restaurants, dog parks, lakes, trails, mountains, etc.
Dr. Erika is very compassionate and caring and loves to see patients of all ages. She hopes to make Lighthouse Dental a comfortable place for you, your families, friends, neighbors and co-workers. She is very excited to meet and get to know each one of you and continue to serve you for your dental care.
