Dr. Randall LaFrom

Graduated from UCLA Dental School in 1982, went to San Jose State University, West Valley Community College and Mitty High School prior to dental school. His family has lived in the Santa Clara County for over 45 years. Dr. Randy was probably the only kid in his dental school class that knew he wanted to be a dentist as early as fourth grade. This helped him focus his studies, and while at San Jose State, he was the president of the Pre-Dental Student Association, and assisted others in learning about dentistry. While in dental school, he was the sophmore year class vice president. This gave him a lot of experience in dealing with teachers, administration and he was also in charge of helping initiate the freshman class into the dental program. Once out of school, Dr. Randy joined the Cupertino Chamber of Commerce and was elected the Vice-President and served on the Board of Directors for three years. Randy was an Eagle Boy Scout and he plays guitar and keyboards in a band on a "for-fun" basis. Dr. Randy is one of those dentists that is a continual student, attending every seminar and buying every gadget that comes out. He loves providing the state-of-the-art care in a personal caring environment. He is committed to his patients to providing them with the best possible care available and is willing to do what it takes to make sure that his clients are well taken care of. One of his hobbies also includes creating web pages!

Alison Foster, RDH - Hygienist
Alison started off with us about eight years ago as a chairside assistant. After a few years and some advanced training in cosmetic dentistry, Alison decided to go back to school full time to become a hygienist. She attended Foothill College in Los Altos and graduated in June 2004. Her experience in dental assisting helped her breeze through the patient portion of school and her love of dentistry allowed her to graduate with honors. Alison has a twin sister who also became a dental hygienist and from time to time you can see the two of them running around the town together. Her energy and enthusiasm are greatly appreciated at our office. Alison is our outdoor camper and she enjoys spending time with her fiancee, their boat and their dogs.

Dawn Miller - RDA - Financial Coordinator and Chairside Assistant
Dawn is one of Dr. LaFrom's chairside assistants and she currently assists with the insurance and billing aspect of the office. She has been in the dental field for twenty years now. She was a resident of Santa Clara for many years while growing up and then moved to Oregon where she lived with her husband for for approximately five years, then decided to come back to California.She joined out team about three years ago and really loves helping out at the office. She enjoys watching our patients walk out with beautiful smiles.Her hobbies include reading, word games, needlepoint, yard sale cruising and playing with her grandkids.

Mary Jane Valiao - Appointment Coordinator
Jane started working as a receptionist for Western Dental College in 1997. Shortly thereafter, she was trained in dental insurance billing and became the office manager at that office. She worked at an orthodontic office for a year after that, but realized that her true enjoyment came out of working with children as well as adults. She has taken several dental related courses including insurance billing, clinical classes on Invisalign and also takes dental hygiene courses in the evening. When she has free time, she enjoys writing poems, she enjoys gardening and staying at home.

Michelle Woods -Registered Dental Assistant
Michelle has been with our office for over one year now. She is Doctor LaFrom's chariside assistant and she also helps with the front office. She brings with her over 20 years experience in the dental field and loves working with patients. She appreciates all the fun high-tech toys that our office has that allows us to provide our patients with state-of-the-art dentistry. Although she is from the Bay Area, she is currently living in the Sacramento area and commutes to work because she loves her job and the patients. Michelle loves Las Vegas, country music and travelling.
