Meet The Doctors

Dr. King

Born and raised in Muleshoe, Dr. King appreciates the panhandle and it’s people. Upon graduation from Muleshoe High School, Dr. King began his college career at Texas Tech University. It was there that Dr. King met his wife, Rachelle. She grew up in Tahoka, Texas and shared Dr. King’s ties to the area. Dr. King graduated in 1995 with a BS in Zoology and a minor in Chemistry. After graduation, he began work with Southwestern Public Service Company, now known as Xcel Energy, where he worked for six years. During two of these years, he also ventured into a spraying company, and along with his wife, was employed by the Methodist Church in Muleshoe as youth director. Rachelle is a licensed secondary science teacher, and she taught junior high science in Muleshoe.

After years of searching, Dr. King decided to make a change and pursue his lifelong goal of becoming a dentist. In 2000, Dr. King was accepted into dental school at UT San Antonio, one of the most prestigious dental schools in the nation. It was a life changing experience as he and Rachelle moved their two children, Kaleb and Ashley, to San Antonio where he would attend dental school at the University of Texas Health Science Center. In May 2005, Dr. King graduated from dental school with honors in teacher training. Dr. King had met Dr. Moore during his dental training and accepted a job with him as an associate upon graduation. Dr. Moore and Dr. King are now partners in the practice and enjoy working with Dr. Coker.
