The VanMeters

Dr. Wendy’s fondness for dentistry came at a very young age when she was a frequent patient in her dentist’s office. Her mother, a hygienist, encouraged her to pursue dentistry as a profession. Despite having 11 primary teeth extracted, she still loved going to the dentist. She is passionate about educating her families in preventing dental disease and helping her patients achieve a beautiful and healthy smile.

As a mother, Dr. Wendy appreciates the extremely important decisions parents must make in the care of their children’s teeth. She provides families with the information they need to make the best decisions possible for their family’s dental welfare. She provides children with individualized care and dental health care choices to suit their specific needs.

Dr. Wendy is an active member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, American Dental Association, Kentucky Dental Association, Kentucky Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, and Blue Grass Dental Society.
She resides in Lexington, with her husband, Chris Van Meter, and their children, Caroline and Cooper. When not at the office, Dr. Wendy enjoys reading, ballroom dancing, scuba diving, and traveling. She is also an avid University of Kentucky Wildcat fan.
