Founders & Innovators
Meet the individuals who have helped to build Health Professionals Alliance. Our founding members and innovators recognized the benefit of banding together as a group of healthcare professionals to form an alliance that gives doctors the tools they need to remain independent. These founding members and innovators are committed to growing the alliance, providing exceptional care to their patients, and innovating to create new opportunities for new members.


Dr. Kimberly Wright, DMD
Dr. Wright has been a practicing dentist for over 30 years and currently owns and operates her own practice in West Linn, Oregon. She is a passionate leader in her dental community as a recipient of the Master’s Award from the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) in 2011 and has served in several leadership roles within the AGD and the Oregon Dental Association (ODA). Dr. Wright continues to work hard to maximize her independence within dentistry and support other private practitioners every day.
“I’ll always trust my own best judgement for treating my patients over what a corporation has to say in a binder somewhere. I encourage every doctor to do the same.”
