Associate Pediatric Dentist | Board Certified Pediatric Dentist
From Military Service to Pediatric Excellence
Dr. Katie Ramage brings a unique combination of military precision, world-class training, and Louisiana warmth to pediatric dentistry. Her journey from high school job shadowing to serving as a pediatric dental specialist in the U.S. military has created a practitioner who delivers exceptional clinical results while making every child feel like family.
Proven Leadership and Excellence
After discovering her passion for dentistry’s blend of science, art, and human connection, Dr. Ramage earned her DMD from A.T. Still University’s Arizona School of Dentistry and completed her pediatric residency at the prestigious Baylor College of Dentistry. But what truly shaped her approach was eight years of military service, where she honed her skills treating children in challenging environments and developed the leadership qualities that make her such an effective advocate for her young patients.
Recognition of Excellence
Dr. Ramage’s commitment to the highest standards of care is reflected in her Fellowship with the American College of Dentists—an honor reserved for dentists who demonstrate exceptional ethics, leadership, and service to the profession. Currently serving in the U.S. Army Reserves while maintaining her civilian practice, she brings military discipline to pediatric gentleness.
A Global Perspective on Care
Having traveled to over 35 countries, Dr. Ramage brings a broad worldview to her practice. This global perspective, combined with her military experience, gives her unique insights into working with children from diverse backgrounds and helping families navigate complex dental needs with confidence and clarity.
The Ambidextrous Advantage
Dr. Ramage is ambidextrous! She writes and practices dentistry left-handed but handles most other tasks with her right hand. This rare ability isn’t just a conversation starter—it gives her extraordinary dexterity and precision in her clinical work.
Family-Centered Philosophy
As a mother herself, Dr. Ramage understands the anxiety parents feel about their children’s dental care. Her approach focuses on building trust, eliminating fear, and creating positive associations with dental health that last a lifetime. Whether it’s a routine cleaning or complex treatment, she ensures every child leaves feeling proud of their healthy smile.
