Dr. Carrie Pumphrey

Dr. Carrie Pumphrey founded Blue River Dental in 2001 with one clear goal: to bring compassionate, efficient dental care to the Shelbyville community she loves. Originally from Greensburg, Indiana, she earned her BS in Nutrition Science from Purdue and completed her dental training at Indiana University. Known for her calm presence and commitment to same-day care, Dr. Pumphrey blends high-tech precision with a down-to-earth approach that puts patients at ease.

She’s an active member of the American Dental Association, the Indiana Dental Association, and the American Academy of Oral Systemic Health, and she regularly participates in study clubs to stay ahead of the curve. Outside the office, Dr. Pumphrey gives back through local organizations like Girls Inc., SCUFFY, and the Major Hospital Foundation. She and her husband, George, are raising two boys, Luca and Alek and love spending time outdoors and exploring new places together.
