Get to know

Dr. Parker Woodruff, DMD

Dr. Parker Woodruff brings a unique blend of clinical expertise and genuine compassion to every patient interaction. Originally from Southern California, Dr. Woodruff was first inspired to pursue dentistry after shadowing his orthodontist during his teen years. That spark set him on a path of meaningful care. He went on to earn his BS in Physiology from the University of Arizona, followed by both an MA in Biomedical Sciences and a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) from Midwestern University in Glendale, Arizona.

With five years of experience, Dr. Woodruff has cultivated a reputation for thoughtful, relationship-driven care. He especially enjoys restorative dentistry, including same-day crowns, veneers, and complete smile makeovers. He also provides treatment for sleep apnea through mandibular advancement devices, helping patients improve their health and quality of life. His favorite part of dentistry is ensuring every patient feels seen, heard, and respected.

Dr. Woodruff’s philosophy is rooted in education and empowerment. He never wants a patient to feel rushed or confused. Instead, he takes the time to explain treatment options and their long-term implications, so patients leave feeling confident in their care. He strives to build strong, lasting relationships grounded in integrity, mutual respect, and clinical excellence.

Today, Dr. Woodruff lives just minutes from the office with his wife, Taylor, and their five young children, yes, including surprise triplets! He and Taylor value family time, love exploring new restaurants, and enjoy staying active. When he gets a moment to relax, you’ll likely find him following college football and basketball (Bear Down!).

Rooted in the same community he serves, Dr. Woodruff isn’t just your dentist, he’s your neighbor, and he’s proud to call Peoria home.
