DR. AND STAFF BIOGRAPHIES

Dr. Albert B. Clark

Dr. Clark is the head hauncho. El capitano. Cheif. Boss. Leader of the pack. (He hasn't written a bio for himself, so here is his dental assistants' version:) Dr. Clark is the most humble and hard working person we have ever met.  He puts his own wants last, and is only concerned with helping others.  We have all been touched by knowing him and hope that many more people will also be blessed to know him.

Dr. Quinn J. Schiffman 

"I feel very fortunate and blessed to be able to work in this profession." Dr. Schiffman is originally from Bountiful Utah and graduated from Viewmont High School. He then served an LDS Mission to Hungary, which "was a wonderful experience."  Upon returning, He enrolled at BYU and completed a B.S. in Microbiology with minors in Chemistry, Zoology, and Business Management. He received his dental training at Ohio State University and graduated in 2004. He began practicing here in Provo soon after graduation. His wife Lisa is from Ucon Idaho near Idaho Falls. They enjoy being outdoors and with family and currently live in Provo.

Vickie Bridget

Vickie as been working in this office even before Dr. Clark took over from Dr. Ord.  Many of you know Vickie at the front office, but what many of you don't know is that she has done it all.  She started as a chairside assisting working with the doctor, and through her years of experience knows how to do it all, scheduling patients, handling insurance, etc. She enjoys spending time with her family and is lovingly known as "Elmer".

Tami Tomlinson

Tami grew up in Lindon and graduated from Pleasant Grove High School.  She attended dental assisting school at Provo College eleven years ago and has worked in our office since.  She is the talented assistant responsible for our seasonal decor, which continues to delight our patients. Tami is kind and gentle to children of all ages.  When she's not at work, Tami enjoys spending time with family and friends, reading, and taking care of all her plants!    

Kristy Huish

Kristy is Dr. Clark's daughter and has worked in the office for twelve years, six of which as a hygienist.  She graduated as valedictorian from UVSC in 2000.  She spends most of her time wrestling her two children, so she is only in part time.  Consider yourself lucky if you come when she is in!  Before she lost her identity to her children, Kristy enjoyed lifting weights, rollerblading, rock climbing, and hiking.
