“Live Life to its Fullest” is the moto Karen lives by. From her perfect sparkly painted nails to the spicy foods she loves to eat, Karen gives everything 100% and it shows by the large numbers of kids who are excited to come back to the dentist because of the trust she’s earned and the relationships she fosters.

Spending time with her family and friends while listening to soft rock on the beaches of Hawaii definitely puts a smile on her face. However, working as a team with her fellow LPDG family members to ensure our patients leave happy, confident and with a big healthy smile not only puts a smile on her face but also warms her heart and feeds her soul.

Dalys returned to LPDG because she said “no where else felt like home.” As a mother to two boys her vast experiences outside the dental setting shines through while caring for her patients. She buzzes from room to room at the pace of a hummingbird’s wings (her favorite animal btw) while projecting the calmness she feels while lying on her favorite beach in Hawaii. Although she is not much taller than some of the kiddos her compassionate heart can fill a room. 

Andrea is a sporty, nature loving, adventure seeker with a kind heart.  When she is not home with her cat, Sanchi she is cheering on the Portugal National soccer team. She loves travelling to Mexico to enjoy its' beautiful beaches, mountains, and exciting city life.  LPDG is lucky to have her as part of our team because she loves making the kids feel comfortable while at the dentist.

A perfect day for Janet might include starting her day with a fresh cup of coffee on Catalina Island, then playing badminton while listening to R&B music.  Her perfect day at LPDG includes educating patients about their oral hygiene and ways to prevent cavities and gum disease.  Her caring way with our families is felt by all.

Victor has earned the title of “Best Picture Taker in the World” due to his ability to make the x-ray equipment inviting and familiar to even our young patients who may need an x-ray. While helping kids overcome their fears is his favorite part of his job, watching his LA Dodgers win with his daughter puts an extra wide smile (and dimple) on his face.

Clyde can’t help but smile when he hears the cutest and most random things come out of our patients’ mouths. His special gift is his ability to put the kids at ease by chatting with them about his favorite Dodgers and Lakers or the latest movies as he escorts them to and from their dental cleanings. His children are his pride and joy and seeing their happy faces after a day at LPDG makes it all worth it.
