Dr. Epkey & Family

Kathryn E. Epkey, DDS, MSD

Dr. Kathryn Epkey’s drive to open her practice was focused on her passion for serving her hometown community. Her faith, character, values, and caring personality help optimize the service to her patients. With a history in dentistry, her family has been serving the Mid-Ohio Valley for over 60 years.  

In 2009, Dr. Epkey volunteered as a dental assistant at the Mission of Mercy dental clinic in Parkersburg. This was the first time she saw the great need for oral health care in the Mid Ohio Valley. This was the moment Dr. Epkey wanted to be a dentist. She was particularly intrigued by helping patients feel at ease and getting them out of pain.  

​​Dr. Epkey received a B.A. in Biology with a minor in Spanish from Clemson University where she graduated Phi Beta Kappa in 2009. She was also a member of the women's tennis program which won the ACC Championship her senior year.
Dr. Epkey earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery from West Virginia University in 2015. Upon graduation, she received the Endodontic Student Achievement Award and the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons Dental Student Award.

Dr. Epkey completed her General Practice Residency in Bronx, New York at Jacobi Medical Center Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 2016. During her time in New York, she gained experience in hospital dentistry and treating patients with complicated medical histories.

Dr. Epkey completed her specialty training in Endodontics at Indiana University School of Dentistry, where she also earned her Masters of Science in Dentistry in 2018. Dr. Epkey is currently Board Eligible with the American Board of Endodontics and anticipates completing the extensive board certification process within the next two years. 

In 2018, Dr. Epkey opened her practice in her hometown of Vienna, West Virginia. ​

Dr. Epkey is currently a member of:
  • American Association of Endodontists 
  • American Dental Association 
  • West Virginia Dental Association  

Dr. Epkey and her husband, Jarrod, are proud parents of two boys. Outside of endodontics, Dr. Epkey enjoys spending time with her family, playing tennis, spinning, and traveling. Dr. Epkey is fluent in Spanish.

Tiffany Epperly 
Clinical Assistant 

​Tiffany Epperly joined Hometown Endodontics in March of 2019. She graduated with a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies from Ohio Valley University, while raising her 6 beautiful children. From motherhood, to behavioral health, to working with children who have disabilities at a local elementary school. She has spent her life serving and helping others feel like they belong.

Tiffany believes her purpose and mission is to help others strengthen belief in themselves and their self-image. Though you may not be able to tell, she struggled with low self-image growing up. Tiffany said, “I was embarrassed of my teeth until I had them corrected. If one patient comes into Hometown Endodontics and I get to help them feel better about their smile and themselves, then my day was a success.”

Tiffany also has 3 beautiful grandchildren. She and her husband are avid runners and adventurers. Their favorite half marathon is on the island of Maui, Hawaii. She has completed over 50 half marathons and 2 marathons.
