Dr.Tamara Bill Fernandes, known in the practice as “Dr Tamara”, joined Sedona Dental Arts at the end of July 2009 after graduating from the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry in San Francisco with a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. University of the Pacific School of Dentistry is one of the most highly regarded dental schools in the US. Every year, over 3000 students apply for 140 spots.

She earned numerous awards at Pacific including the Dental Anatomy Award for Excellence in Esthetics and the Academy of General Dentistry Award for greatest interest, knowledge and proficiency in general dentistry.

While receiving her formal dental education from the faculty at the dental school, Dr. Tamara was mentored by her dad during weekly, and sometimes daily, phone conversations about dental techniques, materials, approaches and technologies. While “Dr. Dad” would share information based on experience and his extensive continuing education courses, he always sought from Tamara the recommendations of the dental school faculty. This collaborative approach continues in the dental practice today.

Dr. Tamara is a 2001 valedictorian graduate of Sedona Red Rock High School where she held offices in the Student Council and the Key Club. She also was a top golfer attaining a handicap of 5.6 when at her peak and played soccer and basketball. She also competed vocally; singing in all-regional and all-state choirs, all-state vocal jazz ensemble, and Arizona National Association of Singing competitions. She received singing and leadership awards while attending NAU Summer Music Camp for many years.

She is a cum laude with honors graduate of the University of Arizona with a degree in biology. At the University of Arizona, she was a member and director of an a-Capella vocal jazz group and graduated from the Blue Chip Leadership Program.

Dr. Tamara’s husband, Dr. Thomas Fernandes, joined Sedona Dental Arts in July of 2011. Click here to see Dr. Tom’s bio.
