Pam has been working with Dr. Okubo for a little over 3 years now and enjoys greeting all of our patients and their families as they come into our office. Pam and her husband have five children and one English bulldog. Three of Pam’s kids and one son-in-law can thank Dr. O for their beautiful smiles!
