Meet Dr. Kolean

Meet your new dentist, Dr. Ben Kolean. He was raised in Washington state and even as a boy dreamed of living here in Alaska with his family. After high school, he followed his three brothers to Alaska working as a fisherman each summer. He returned to Washington State for dental school and in 2002 he graduated from the University of Washington with a degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery. Promptly after graduating, he knew that Alaska is his home and moved back to start practicing. Dr. Kolean chose dentistry as a career because he wanted to help people, and that’s exactly what he does!

Dr. Kolean now resides in Wasilla, Alaska with his wife and 2 children. In his spare time he loves hiking, fishing, hunting and exploring. His family truly gets involved in everything the great state of Alaska has to offer.
