Office Manager: Savannah
Savannah started as a dental assistant in Chicago over ten years ago. She worked her way up to the front desk, and then office manager! Working in dentistry allows her to meet new people and witness the personal transformations that patients experience when improving their oral health. She strives to ensure that each patient has the best possible experience in our office.
Savannah moved to Arizona in 2018. She is originally from Fresno, CA, where her family still resides, and she visits often. Savannah enjoys spending time with her significant other in her spare time, watching sports, attending sports events, and volunteering to feed homeless dogs. She loves the San Francisco 49ers and is very passionate about animal rescue. She would love to have her own dog rescue one day!
Team Member: Mr. Woodford
Mr. Woodford is the star of the show at Beyond Dental Care! His calm demeanor and loving personality will put a smile on your face. He enjoys getting attention from everyone, and can often be found snoozing in Dr Lazore’s office.
Mr. Woodford comes to us from Stealing Hearts Rescue in Phoenix, AZ. He was adopted by Dr Lazore a few years ago. Sadly, he had been shot with a pellet gun and left to fend for himself in the Arizona heat. He has several missing teeth so it is thought that he chewed his way out of a fence or cage. But now his days are filled with treats, air conditioning, comfy beds, and tons of love!
