Meet Our Team

Cathy Gomez, 

Office Manager

After 11 years in the dental field, Cathy has mastered office management and proudly leads the team to always reach their goals. She has two awesome kids and is the proud Glam-ma of one adorable little boy. On her spare time you'll catch her at the beach or yelling "GO PANTHERS" all football season long.

Erika has been with our practice since 2009. Her advanced knowledge of every aspect of our dental office enables her to provide broad guidance and training for our staff. She works hard to assure that things run seamlessly and our patients leave with a great experience. A fun fact about Erika, she was a cast member for Walt Disney World as a Character performer. She also worked with Edinburg CISD for 10 years as a Choreographer for the Fine Arts department. 

At just 18 years old, James was groomed into dentistry and has been making everybody’s life easier at The Lakes Family Dental for 11 years. James is attending his 2nd year at Texas Tech Dental School and we couldn’t be prouder! When he’s not at work or in school, James enjoys fishing, playing guitar and quality time with his wife, Aly and their dog, Bobo.
