Meet Our Team

Pam is a Business Administrator and is originally from Florida but has lived in Colorado for 31 years, practically making her a native! She is a true Boulderite in that she loves the outdoors, biking, hiking and taking her dog, Bella, for her daily walks.

Pam has a grown son who lives in Erie with a menagerie of animals that keep him busy when he isn't working.

“I've been with Drs. Bishop and Takemoto about 18 1/2 years and truly love interacting with patients and watching their kids grow — I look forward to meeting new patients and helping all patients with their needs.”

DeeAnn is a Business Administrator and is a Colorado native, born and raised in the San Luis Valley.

With a husband and two boys, 12 and 14, DeeAnn leads a very active life with her family that includes carpooling the kids, helping them with homework, watching them play sports, watching movies together on family nights and making sure they have quality family dinner time together.

“Working in this office keeps me on my toes working with great patients, doctors, and co-workers. Both doctors are very compassionate in their work, which makes me confident in referring my own friends and family here for their dentistry.”

Danelle has worked as a Dental Hygienist for 32 years and with Bishop + Takemoto for seven of those. She and her husband, Patrick, have two adult sons who live in the area.

Danelle enjoys dance aerobics, riding her bicycle (three-speed cruiser), golf, and taking her dog, Walter, on hikes.  

“The patients are what I really like about our practice. I get to spend a lot of time with some of them — sometimes three or four times a year — more often than I see some of my relatives!”

Julie has been a Dental Assistant, EDDA, at the practice for two years.  She was born and raised in Virginia, then moved to Chicago when she was 16. After college and meeting and marrying husband, Chris, Julie moved to Denver in 2005. Son Jake was born in 2006 and is “ the most important thing to us.”

Julie's favorite pastime is to be with her son and husband just spending time together. They also enjoy traveling to visit family throughout the United States.

“I enjoy working in our office because we work together and complement each other so nicely, and we also get to work in an environment with the best technology and most up-to-date procedures.”

Lori likes to spend time at Lake McConaughy in Nebraska in the summer and enjoys snow skiing in the winter.

“I love working here because there is always a lot of fun and laughter going on.”

Trina has spent her entire career as a Dental Assistant, EDDA, with the practice, including her internship more than 13 years ago.  She enjoys spending time with her husband and two sons, volunteering at their school, hanging out with friends and watching the Broncos play.

Jenna has been a Dental Assistant, EDDA, with the practice for the past three years.

“Working in the practice has enabled me to increase my vocational growth while challenging me to meet countless objectives in a timely manner. I'm always looking to reach goals and stretch myself — that's probably why I've always been active in competitive sports!”

Dana - Dana has been a Dental Hygienist for the past eight years and has enjoyed being with Bishop+Takemoto for the past four.  She has lived in Colorado for five years and has also lived in Missouri, Rhode Island and Kansas.

Her passions include working out and snowshoeing with her husband, Kyle.  She also enjoys softball, veterinary dentistry and time with her family and friends.

Kristine is a Dental Assistant, EDDA, with more than 23 years experience in the field -- eight of them with Bishop + Takemoto. When she's not in the office, she loves spending time with her family, volunteering for local community activities and cooking — she's a terrific cook!
