Meet Our Staff
Every business has its most important asset or "secret weapon." Our dental practice is no different. Our staff is that secret weapon that makes us unique and special among the many other dental offices in the area. We not only work together, but we also spend time together away from the office! That is a testimony of the friendship and camaraderie we share.
From the moment that you make your first phone call you'll become adopted into the care of these very special people. I am proud to introduce them to you:
Paul L. Evans, DDS
Dr. Paul Evans comes from a family of dentists. His father practices in Los Gatos, California, and his brother-in-law practices in St. George, Utah. Following in the tradition of his family, as well as that of Dr. Smith, Dr. Evans practices mercury-free dentistry.
Dr. Evans is a graduate of the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry in San Francisco, California. He and his wife, Susan, have been married over 20 years. They have three children and love the lifestyle that the Grass Valley - Nevada City area offers their family.
Dr. Paul Evans believes in providing each of his patients with personalized care and attention. Careful listening and understanding of their desires, and clear communication of the treatment goals, are of the highest importance to Dr. Evans.
After graduating from the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry, Paul Evans, DDS, participated in a group practice in Roseville, California. He then moved to Grass Valley in 2004 and joined the cosmetic dental practice of Dr. Stephen Smith. In January of 2007, Dr. Evans purchased the practice of Dr. Stephen Smith. Being able to follow in the footsteps of such an excellent and respected dentist as Dr. Smith was an honor and privilege for Dr. Evans.
Dr. Evans spends many hours pursuing post-graduate education to sharpen his skills and expand his knowledge. To that end, Dr. Paul Evans is a member of the following organizations:
