January 2012 VIP Party

Congratulations to Ryan for being our VIP Patient of the Month!

JD, Cohen, Ryan (VIP), Maeson and Dr. Rob
 We shared such an enjoyable evening with Ryan, his friends, and his family. I also found out that his grandmother was one of our patients a few years ago! (I am luckily surprised by stuff like this since I'm not often in the office...that's one reason why I love the VIP parties so much...I get the chance to meet the wonderful patients Rob talks about!)
Jaqueline and Ryan's grandparents: Marilyn and Leo
 Kara, Rynda, and I talked a bit about couponing (Kara operates Practical Saver, a local couponing website) and homeschooling. She told us about some stories a world-traveling missionary shared with her kids today at a homeschool Co-op. Leo and Dr. Rob shared some stories about Korea (Dr. Rob served a 2 year mission in Korea, went there for a study abroad, and received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Korean...he may just be one of Prescott Valley's top Korean experts). :)

Kara, Rynda, & Ross--Kara & Ross are the VIP's parents.  







Ross is a plumber and the owner of Dependable Dutchman Plumbing. It was such a pleasure getting to know this couple better. They are such a wonderful family.

Ryan, Cohen, and JD.
 A bit about Ryan: he lives in PV with his parents, older brother, and younger sister. They have 3 dogs, 2 horses, some sheep, and chickens. Ryan is in 8th grade and is homeschooled. His favorite sport is airsoft and his favorite color is blue.

Ryan's advice to braces wearers is, "They are not as bad as they look."

When we asked Ryan what he likes about Patterson Orthodontics, his response was, "The positive outlook on things." Ahhhh, shucks. We just like the opportunity we have to get to know you (and your sister...and your grandmother) since you're our patient.

Sabrina, Garrett, and Chase.


Any patient can become a VIP. We choose VIP patients who meet certain criteria:

1. Always on time to appointments
2. Follows instructions (such as wearing rubber brands or adjusting an appliance)
3. Brushes and flosses teeth daily (Dr. Rob really can tell when you don't)
4. Visit your dentist regularly for check ups

We ♥ Our Patients!

Holiday Hours

Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat
Please put a penny in the old man's hat.
If you haven't got a penny, a ha'penny will do.
If you haven't got a ha'penny then God bless you!




We've been listening to that song a lot at our house...the Muppet version. That whole Christmas album is fun! (Although, you can get a little tired of the Muppets 12 Days of Christmas if it's played 12 times in a row.) One of the best parts of Christmas is Christmas Vacation! Because that gives us more time to spend with our loved ones!

We are going to be closed from December 23 to January 2 to give our staff and doctor some time to spend with family. One of our staff will be on call, and the phone will be forwarded, so if one of our patients has a poking wire, give us a call.

Also, make sure to book your next appointment before December 23 or after January 2!

Merry Christmas! 

September VIP


CONGRATULATIONS to Alithea, our VIP Patient of the Month!





Alithea lives in Chino Valley with her dad, mom and amazing brother, Aaron.  Her family also includes six pets. Alithea attends Chino Valley High School and is a sophomore. Alithea loves school. This past summer she attended a six week program with Upward Bound at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. This six week program involved attending college classes that count towards college and high school credits. She also volunteers at her church for vacation Bible School and worked with the pre-school children over the summer. Alithea’s favorite color is Orange.  She loves the combination of purple and white. She absolutely hates pink!!!!

 

When asked, “What was the most exciting vacation you have taken?” her reply was,
“We were invited to my aunt’s condo in California along the beach. I watched dolphins and saw beautiful sunsets every night. I went to the beach, swam in the pool, walked and ate at the pier.



Alithea’s advice to brace wearers is, “Listen to Dr. Rob and everything will be fine and do everything he tells you about caring for your braces.”

When we asked Alithea what she likes about Patterson Orthodontics, her response was, “I always look forward to my next appointment. I love walking in and everybody knows who I am. The feeling in the air is always up-beat and fun, and knowing every time I walk in I am going to enjoy myself. Sometimes I wish my braces would never come off so  I could come forever!!!!"

Thank you Alithea…….You are a very special patient and you are always welcome to visit us...even when your braces come off!!!!!

Announcing...New Fall Contests!

Cooler weather, changing colors, longer evenings. 
It must be Fall! 
(Okay, we could do without the extra wind...)

Contest 1: Coloring Contest

It's also National Orthodontic Health Month!
To celebrate, we're having another coloring contest this year.
Just print this coloring page (click on it, then print it...or come by our office to pick it up), color to your heart's content, then submit it to our office...the sooner, the better! 



We're going to handle the judging a little differently this year.
Instead of us judging the entries, we'll let you judge them!
Starting October 20, we'll post all of the entries on our Facebook page.
Each entry will have its own post, so get all of your friends on FB to LIKE your entry.
The entry with the most LIKES on Facebook will win a $10 iTunes card!
(So those who have their coloring pages submitted by October 20 will have a better chance at getting more LIKES than those who submit them later.)

The Coloring Contest ends on Halloween.


Contest 2: Guess How Much the Pumpkin Weighs

Starting next Tuesday, we'll have a big-o pumpkin sittin in our office.
Each of our patients can submit their best guess of the thing.
The closest guess will win a prize!

The contest ends Nov 22.
