Meet Our Team

Pamela Jackson #554
Practice Manager

Pamela Jackson

Pamela has spent much of her career in the dental industry starting straight out of school, making her very experienced. She enjoys passing on knowledge to newer team members and ensuring patients are well cared for and put at ease.

When she is not working, she loves everything creative, and trying all things adventurous like jumping out of perfectly good aeroplanes!  Pamela lives for family time and spends as much time as she can with her three grown children and two wee grand-daughters.

Fun Fact: She first went to university and obtained a teaching degree at 45!

Outside of the practice, Elsie enjoys restoring furniture and spending time in her garden.
