Graduating from the College of Dentistry at the University of Florida in 1994, Dr. Starling began her career in Starke, FL where she remained for the following 8 years. In 2003, she opened a solo practice in Keystone Heights, FL where she is currently located. She is a member of the American Dental Association, Alachua County Dental Association, and the Northeast District Dental Association. Her office is a member of the North Florida Regional Chamber of Commerce and supports local school & community events in the surrounding counties. Her goal is to use her God given skills to treat her patients as family while putting them at ease and providing quality dental care in a calming environment that feels more like home than a clinical office.
At the age of 12, Tracie moved with her family from Ft Myers, FL to Starke, FL where she graduated from Bradford High School in 1986. She was influenced to pursue dentistry by her pediatric dentist, hygienist, and best friend’s dad who was also a dentist. Tracie married Robert in 1989, and they reside in Bradford County. When Dr. Starling is not at the office or furthering her dental knowledge and skills in continuing education courses, she & her family enjoy watching baseball of any kind, UF football, & movies, going to the beach or lake, traveling, & redecorating spaces. Tracie and her husband are also active and serve in multiple capacities in their church. Growing up in a small, family-oriented town, she always desired returning to provide dental care to the communities which “raised her up.”
