Meet Dr. Patterson
I became interested in orthodontics soon after beginning my second round of braces as a kid. I had lost my retainer and though this incident would be deemed unfortunate by most, including my parents at the time, it was exactly when my interest in orthodontics was born. Since becoming an orthodontist, I have extended my training to include the treatment of complex cases including cleft palate and airway health. I’ve also had advanced training in General Dentistry which increases my ability to communicate and work in conjunction with your dentist to enhance your treatment experience.
I currently live in Prescott Valley with my wife, Angie, and our children, Colden, Dylan, Evelynn, Spencer, William and Lilly. I have A LOT of hobbies, and according to my wife, possibly too many. I enjoy working out, mountain biking, fishing, shooting sports, canyoneering, indoor and outdoor climbing, and skiing (did I mention too many hobbies?!?). When I’m getting in touch with my inner rock star I really enjoy singing, playing piano, guitar, and trombone. I also love complex board games and reading a good SciFi/Fantasy novel. Did I mention I speak Korean? I lived there for two years!
I always try to stay involved in the community through various sponsorships, donations, and service. I am blessed to be surrounded by a great team and even better patients, who really have become my second family! In return, I feel that the only way we can make our community stronger is by being actively involved and giving back.

I have loved being a part of Patterson Orthodontics since November of 2020. Dr. Rob is so great to work for, and we have built an awesome team that maintains a positive work environment. When I’m not running the office, I’m a busy mom of 4 kids: some away at school and some still at home. Next to spending time with my family, I enjoy working out, playing volleyball and pickleball.

“Hi, Welcome to Patterson Orthodontics!” I happily joined the Patterson Team in 2026, with over five years of experience in customer service and medical assistant training. I love seeing people smile when they enter the office, and my main goal here at Patterson is to see the people ultimately leave the office with their dream smile! I am from Chino Valley and enjoy the small town atmosphere that it provides for my family and 2 pet dogs, “Boxer” and “Frenchie”. Fun fact: I’m currently learning Spanish!
Amyah
Orthodontic Assistant
My journey to employment at Patterson Orthodontics actually began when I was a patient. I loved everyone so much, I joined the team in March of 2023! Prescott has the peaceful environment my family was looking for, which is vastly different from Las Vegas, NV! I’m a natural red head who loves cooking, music, gaming, and Disney movies. My favorite role is “auntie” to my 5 nieces and nephews, who have my whole heart!

Hi! I’ve been working for Dr. Patterson since 2025 and I love my co-workers! The patients are so kind and memorable, which makes my job easy and enjoyable. I love good food and traveling to new places. Next to my boyfriend, spending time with my two cats (Spazz and Kitty Meow Meow) is my favorite.
Shayla

I worked in orthodontics for 5 years before taking a break to be a mom to two amazing kids. Once they were old enough to be in school, I knew Patterson was the perfect place to get back into assisting. I love getting to know our patients and helping them achieve the perfect smile. My husband and I fell in love with the Prescott area and relocated here from southern Utah back in 2020. My family means the world to me and we love to do anything outdoors together.
Trenton
Lab Technician
I’m currently enrolled at Yavapai College with the goal of attending dental school. I love learning each day and improving my skill & technique here at Patterson Orthodontics.

Hi, I’m Elise! I started out 2026 looking for change and found it in Patterson Orthodontics!

I moved to Prescott, AZ from Kansas City, KS and love the weather, mountains and opportunities to travel and explore all that Arizona has to offer!
Sierra
Orthodontic Assistant
Hi! I’m originally from Washington, but the warm sunshine and enticing landscape is what drew me to Arizona. When I’m not working, you can find me camping, hiking, and exploring the amazing outdoors with my boyfriend and our long haired dachshund “Hanna”. Something unique about me is that I can bend my fingers back to a 90 degree angle, and I’ll always bend over backwards to help patients achieve their goals here at Patterson Orthodontics!
