Meet our team of doctors
Peter Snyder
DDS, PC, Founder
Dr. Peter Snyder is a general dentist who graduated from Creighton Dental School in May of 1994. Dr. Snyder’s undergraduate degree is from the University of Oregon in Biology. This makes him 100% duck.
After working 4 years as an associate dentist in a group practice on the Big Island of Hawaii, Dr. Snyder moved back to Oregon to purchase his own dental practice. He is married and has 2 daughters. His youngest daughter attends Oregon State and his oldest daughter graduated from the University of Portland.
When Dr. Snyder is not cheering the Oregon Ducks, he is attending continuing education classes in the field of dentistry. Dr. Snyder is a member of the Academy of General Dentistry.
In August of 2006, Dr. Peter Snyder became a Fellow in the Academy of General Dentistry. This award represents the professional responsibility of him to remain current in dentistry through quality continuing education.
Dr. Snyder has been a member of numerous dental study clubs, including the Spears Study Club, and recently attending the Zimmer Institute in Carlsbad, CA.
Dr. Snyder’s hobbies include hiking, running, traveling, and watching his daughter play soccer.
Leah Hickson
DDS, PC
Dr. Hickson graduated from Creighton University School of Dentistry in 2007. Joining our team in February 2018, she adds services such as cosmetic and therapeutic procedures using Botox for migraines, TMD, Triggerpoint pain as well as treatment of deep lines and wrinkles; including Dermafillers for deep folds around the mouth and nose, and enhancement of lips for uneven smiles related to the shape and fullness of lips.
Native to our area, Dr. Hickson grew up in Lane county and lives with her husband and two labradors in Pleasant Hill. She enjoys getting outside, hiking, camping, fishing and biking.
“Comprehensive care means considering the health of the whole mouth as treatment is planned, rather than treating individual teeth when they have a problem. With comprehensive care, the end goal is optimum oral health. Treatment is almost always less expensive and extensive when teeth are restored before they become a problem.”
Dr. Hickson says it’s her goal to give patients the most complete information about their oral health status and then help them choose the treatment ooption that best fits.
