Farooqi Owais a DDS

The stretch of Veterans Drive SW in Tacoma serves as a quiet corridor between residential pockets and the sprawling Joint Base Lewis-McChord. Among the unassuming storefronts and service providers, Farooqi Owais a DDS offers general dentistry in a part of the city where military families and longtime locals often overlap. The practice sits at 9600 Veterans Dr SW, a few miles from the base’s main gates but far enough from the highway hum to feel like part of the neighborhood fabric. Dentists in this area tend to see a mix of routine checkups, emergency repairs, and the occasional complex procedure—standard fare for a clinic that doesn’t advertise specialties but covers the fundamentals.

Like many dental offices, they handle fillings, extractions, and preventive care without fanfare. The address places them just north of the Tacoma Mall’s retail pull, meaning patients might swing by after errands or on their way home from work. For those mapping out the visit, directions are straightforward from either I-5 or the base’s side roads. Questions about appointments or services go to (253) 582-8440—a practical detail for anyone scanning the listing.
