Serving Los Banos with Quality Dental Care

After becoming a Registered Dental Assistant in 1994, Tammy was excited to utilize her skills at Doctor’s Carolyn and Andrew Smith’s dental practice when she joined their team in 2003. Assisting chair-side with both doctors is her primary role; however, Tammy finds setting patients at ease very rewarding. She is the proud mother of five handsome boys. As Tammy finds herself with more free time as they move more fully into their adult lives, she is discovering long-forgotten hobbies like crafting. Tammy is always looking forward to her next trip to Disneyland!
