Lia C

Lia is both a licensed Registered Dental Assistant (#83508) and our front desk lead at Mt Tam Pediatric Dentistry. She has 10 years of professional experience in pediatric dentistry, 5 years of professional momming :) and brings expert assisting to Mt Tam Pediatric Dentistry.

From Lia:

I was born and raised in Sonoma county where I now reside with my husband and 5yr old daughter. One of my favorite parts of my job is showing up for your children and creating a healthy foundation for dental visits and oral care. The beautiful, bright smiles at the end of the each visit makes me feel so proud to be apart of this team. When I am in office you will catch me scheduling your next appointment or sparkling up your child’s smile. My days off are spent running around my daughter, indulging in all the delicious foods (our family are  big foodies) and summer days on the lake with my family! 

 

Evelyn M

Evelyn is a licensed Registered Dental Assistant (#78299) and our lead training assistant, as well as one of our experienced general anesthesia assistants. She has practiced for 10+ years in the Bay Area after graduating high school and completing her training at the College of Marin.

From Evelyn:

I was born and raised in Marin! I enjoy getting outdoors with my family/dog and love trying new foods. One of the most rewarding parts of working with children is eliminating their fears and having the opportunity to show them that coming to the dentist is fun!

 

Summer M

Summer is a licensed Registered Dental Assistant (#96707) and our clinical set-up and sterilization lead at Mt Tam Pediatric Dentistry. She has been practicing for 5 years as a pediatric dental assistant, is a Bay Area native, and brings a keen eye for detail to the Tam Team.

From Summer:

Growing up I suffered from severe medical/dental anxiety. I somehow found myself working in the field and quickly discovered that knowledge is power! My favorite part of this job is walking children through the steps for their visits and being able to take the time to explain all the tools we're going to use and how they work. The fear of the unknown is a big hurdle for children to overcome and it brings me so much joy to be able to walk them through a process in a fun & interactive way. Having a child come in nervous and leaving feeling proud of themselves for what they accomplished is the biggest win for me!
