Meet The Team

It’s hard to believe it’s been almost 16 years since I stepped off a plane at the Anchorage airport and immediately saw Dr. Michael Darling’s giant polar bear in the old Alaska Airlines terminal. Little did I know that I would soon meet Michael and Lucy Darling and go on to work with them for over a decade.Now that the Darlings are enjoying a well-earned retirement, I am excited to be at Anchorage Dental Group.

Born and raised Alaskan she graduated from Service high school. She has been in the dentistry field for over 20 years! She took classes at UAA to pursue dental hygiene and graduated with magna cum laude honors in 2006. Her dental hygiene career began at The Darling Dental group until Dr. Darling retired in 2015. Stacy worked at Artic Family Dental until the practice merged with Anchorage Dental Group. One of Stacy’s favorite things is seeing her long time patients and meeting new ones that come to ADG. She strives to be thorough and puts her patient care first. She will always treat each patient individually and cater towards their needs.

Outside of hygiene, Stacy has another career as a horseback riding instructor and horse trainer. Her students compete in the show ring and she is also very active in the horse show community. Her husband is a captain at the fire department and they have two amazing daughters. Her oldest daughter is a dental assistant in town and her youngest is a sophomore in high school.

Stacy is well known among her patients for being thorough, yet gentle in her treatment. Whether you need a deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), a pre-radiation/chemo/surgery cleaning or simply a prophy (standard cleaning) you are in good hands with Stacy!
