Dr. Gorman’s Biography

Before pursuing dentistry, Dr. Gorman earned a bachelor’s degree in Psychology. This is knowledge she carries forward into her practice and is most proud of her work in helping patients feel comfortable, confident, and relaxed. She enjoys the rich sense of community Willamette Dental has to offer, where she can collaborate with other dentists and hear their perspective on diagnoses or treatment plans. The emphasis on evidence-based dentistry and preventative care was just as appealing to her.

A fan of the Portland food scene, she’s known to spend weekends sampling new cuisines or trying out her own recipes at home. She’s also a certified rescue diver.

Dr. Gorman is an excellent dentist. She gives painless shots, and the protective filling she placed is so perfect and smooth that it feels like my own tooth structure. Cindy, the DA who works with Dr. Gorman is great! She anticipates everything Dr. Gorman needs and they both seem to work very well together as a team. I'm very happy with the care my family has received from Dr. Gorman and her team over the years.

Doctor Gorman is professional and thorough I really enjoy having her as my provider. Chris did my cleaning and did an amazing job she was also thorough and listened to my concerns. Rosie took my images and did it in a timely efficient manner she's very good at being an xray technician. 10/10 all around from checking in to checking out! Thank you ladies!

It is really hard to reschedule an appointment when I canceled due to a family emergency. But due to a cancelation from another patient,I got in. I have to rely on another cancelation to get my filling repaired. Not an emergency thankfully.

You know, when you go to the dentist and it's fun because the hygienist and the dentist both have a great sense of humor, it just makes it all that better. I mean, just, yeah, 10 out of 10. Thanks.

I've always had a fear of going to the Dentist office, but these guys or should I say these girls alleviate all my fears and are very welcoming and professional. I look forward to seeing them when I need services.

I hate the fact that I broke a grown that was already weakened, and yet instead of fixing it first I have to finish my other while my tooth has no grown on it and I have to wait when it should be first.

My doctor is so exceptional. I was terrified of a dentist, and she has worked with me and is very patient and very kind and very sweet. Her associate, Dr. Gorman's associate, is also very knowledgeable and very kind and sweet, and I extremely appreciate their patience and time and effort that they have taken it a lot better with me to be there. Thank you very much, Dr. Gorman. I'm so grateful for you and your assistance and I'm so thankful that I have found you.

Everyone listened to my concerns and answered my questions in a way I could understand. My only concern is the scheduling process. It would be very helpful if I could schedule my next visit when I am already in the office for my visit.
