Jocelyn
Dental Hygienist, RDH
I was born and raised here in the Rogue Valley and attended the Oregon Institute of Technology in Klamath Falls where I graduated in 2008 with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Dental Hygiene and a minor in Psychology. In addition to oral health, my professional passion and focus is natural whole-body health. Everything is intricately connected within us and around us. My husband and I met during school at OIT and together we have 2 wonderfully goofy kids. When I'm not working I enjoy spending time with my kiddos and the ever growing menagerie of animals on our mini farm.

I am originally from the Bay Area, but moved here with my family to Medford when I was very young. I graduated from Crater High School in 2004, after which I attended Abdill Career College of Dental Assisting. I have been in the dental field since 2005 and started working for Dr. Layer in December of 2007 as an assistant. I’m now the office manager and love it!
Maralee
Dental Assistant
I was born and raised in the Rogue Valley. I have been practicing as a dental assistant since 1989. As a dental professional my top priority is creating peace and tranquility within the walls of our practice. I intentionally balance serving our patients, while seamlessly working with Dr. Layer to deliver our best dentistry to you. Making it easier and fun for you to return as a member of our dental family.
I married the love of my life in 1985. In our spare time we spend time with our son, daughter-in-law and four granddaughters. I enjoy cooking, fishing, hunting, bicycling, and have a deep love and appreciation of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Brisa
Chairside Assistant, EFDA
Born and raised, right here, in Medford, OR. I am proud to call the Rogue Valley my home. I recently graduated from Crater High School & completed the RCC dental assistant program.
There are so many reasons I choose a career in dentistry. First and foremost, since childhood, I have always liked going to the dentist, because I was always valued and understood. I absolutely love creating this experience for the patients I am fortunate to serve. Secondly, to assist in the transformation of patient’s dental health and smiles is so rewarding, for them and us. Thirdly, dentistry provides an intimate balance of melding the arts and sciences. I love it!
In my spare time, when I am not with family and friends, you’ll find me reading, expanding my knowledge both professionally and personally, or swimming, or walking.
