Meet Isabel Amaya Bradford – Front Desk and Office Manager Extraordinaire!

How long have you lived in Jackson (or the surrounding area)?

11 years

What made you decide to move to Jackson?

My sister, Cora, married born-and-bred Jacksonian Jim Ligori the same summer I graduated from UNC -Chapel Hill. I thought it would be fun to follow her out for a short adventure before settling into the real world. Little did I know that this quickly became my real world and I couldn’t be happier!

What made you interested in becoming a dental professional, and how long have you worked in dentistry?

My whole family is riddled with dental professionals, so it was bound to happen eventually. I have a dentist uncle, hygiene mom, sister, and cousins. Dr. Larsen asked me to join his team in March 2008.

What’s your perfect Summer and Winter day in the Tetons?

perfect summer day: relaxing by string lake with the kids or hiking around our awesome park. winter is skiing Snow King and trying to keep up with my kids. They Fly!

What is your favorite aspect of being a part of Larsen Family Dentistry?

I love the fact that we are much more than a company. We are a family. We all take joy in spending time together, and I think that shows to our patients. I also love that we don’t see patients as dollar signs, but as beautiful people who have beautiful smiles. Some just need a little more help in having their special smile shine. We care about our patients, and it shows.

If you could give one piece of advice to new or returning patients, what would it be?

Our goal is to give you, the patient, the care you deserve in the time we have set aside for you. Best thing to do is to show up on time. Our goal is to not have patients waiting. I know sometimes things happen that cannot be avoided, but if you are on time and ready to go, we will be able to spend the time you deserve with you. Also, make sure to let the front desk know if you have had a change in insurance, and have a card ready.
