Born right here in Santa Cruz County, Patricia has been in dentistry since 1970, first, as a

Registered Dental Assistant working in Watsonville then in North Lake Tahoe. After

going back to college and receiving her Degree in Dental Hygiene in 1984 and her B.S.

Degree in Health Arts from the University of St. Francis in 1999 she has been working

with Dr Partridge for almost 20 years as his main hygienist.

Certified in soft tissue Laser therapy and a preventive periodontal therapist, Patricia

has dedicated more than half of her professional years to our patients here at

Dr Partridges’ office. She has seen our patients mature and even sees their children and

grandchildren. Patricia loves working with our patients and seeing the results of great

dentistry and healthy smiles we produce. Patricia is very involved in her local and state

dental hygiene associations, holding numerous offices and receiving prestigious awards

from her dental hygiene peers. She also serves as an examiner for the state dental

hygiene licensing board. Patricia is an avid equestrian, riding and winning competitive

trail events with her Arabian horse “Ben”. She gets her trail bruises from some tough

rides but never misses her days at the Partridge office. She lives in Aptos with her

husband Craig, a well known surfer who owns Pacific Fence. They have two dogs and

she enjoys traveling with Craig and her great friends.
