Lori

Lead Surgical Assistant

Hi, I’m Lori. I joined Dr. Toms’ practice in 2017 and have worked in the dental industry for 19 years. I have 3 kids and spend a lot of time with my daughters at their soccer games. My son also competes at wrestling meets, so we stay pretty busy with sports. I have a house full of animals that I love dearly—they include my two dogs (Lola and Paisley) and my two cats (Coco and Evie.) I decided to pursue dentistry so I could make a positive impact on patients. When I was young, I had a bad experience at the dentist and then became afraid of going to the dentist. I don’t want patients to be afraid like I was, so I’m passionate about helping others overcome their fear by providing a safe place with excellent service. I also love seeing patients’ smile make-overs and helping them to save their teeth.
