Meet the Kelowna, BC Dental Team of Dr. Skidmore

Dr. Patricia Skidmore, DMD, General Dentist

Dr.Skidmore is originally from Vancouver, Canada.  She received her Doctor of Medical Dentistry (DMD) degree from the University of British Columbia in 1984.  After working in Northern B.C. and working as an associate dentist in Kelowna, she opened her private practice in 1986 in Kelowna.  She has been involved as a member of the Academy of R.V. Tucker Cast Gold Study Club in Kelowna since its inception here in 1991.  She is a firm believer in continuing education to stay well informed about advances in dental techniques, which is essential for providing her clients with the highest quality of dentistry possible.

Dr. Skidmore has been involved in the community as a former Director for the Chamber of Commerce, has been past president of the Kelowna and District Dental Society, participated in the job-shadows of Okanagan college dental assisting students, and in the Okanagan College Advisory Board for dental assisting.  She has also been a part of the St. John’s Ambulance Therapy Dog program with her black standard poodles, Lydia and Oscar.  She is the busy parent of two teenagers Emma and Owen.  Out of the office, she enjoys skiing, hiking, sailing, travelling and cooking for friends and family.

She is thankful to have a great staff to come work with each day.  She enjoys meeting the ‘whole’ family; some of her clients have been with her for over 30 years!

They really motivate her to take great pride in caring for their dental needs.
