Laura Lee Davis, RDA EF

Laura Lee has been with Dr. Yamada since the beginning of Dr. Yamada's career.  A long road well traveled.  Laura Lee is a Registered Dental Assistant with Extended Functions.  Extended Functions is an advanced degree achieved by less than 5% of dental assistants in California.  She also holds a license as an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Assistant.

Born and raised in San Diego, she received her education at Mesa College, UCLA and Irvine.  She is known for her great sense of humor and laughter.  Since Laura Lee is a local native girl, she loves the sun, sand and beach.

Tiffany Fenderson

Tiffany started her dental profession when she was only 13 working in her father's dental office and learning to assist him.  Trying to rebel, she received a BA in Theatre and worked on her MFA in Technical Theatre. But she could not resist the lure of the dental office.  Every summer she worked for a dentist and finally has settled down and found a home at Dr. Yamada's office.

She still occasionally rebels and works for a few theatres in town doing all sorts of backstage projects.  In the random spare time she does have, she likes to spend it traveling to exotic places or going to see family and friends.

Nichole Gutierrez

A native of Fresno called to San Diego because of its pesticide free atmosphere and its unlimited opportunities. Recently turning 21 has enabled Nichole to be free to explore everything San Diego has to offer, such as Legoland! Nichole is currently being trained on-site performing tasks both of the front desk and behind the scenes. A transplanted OBitian, Nichole can be seen walking around the neighborhood with her python and pit bull; only two of her many animals.
