Dr. Marisa Fox
Dr. Fox graduated from Texas A&M University in 1987. In 1991, she received her D.D.S. degree when she graduated from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio Dental School. Following graduation, she immediately joined the Air Force and was stationed at Wilford Hall Medical Center at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas. Subsequent assignments during her 20-year military career include Misawa Air Base, Japan; Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii; Charleston Air Force Base, South Carolina; and a six month deployment to Iraq.
Her final assignment brought her full circle back to Lackland, here in San Antonio. She retired from the Air Force in 2011 and became a team member in 2012. Dr. Fox loves to make patients feel welcome and comfortable during their dental visits. Through exchanging stories on family and life adventures, she makes a connection with patients and is able to put them at ease during procedures. She is a member of the San Antonio Dental District Society, the Texas Dental Association, and the American Dental Association.
Dr. Fox and her husband got married in 2006 and became a blended family. Now that all seven of their children have graduated from high school, things are a little calmer on the home front. Five of their seven children have been successfully launched on their own and they now have their first grand baby. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, watching Aggie football, and hanging out with family and friends.

Julie Delgado
Dental Assistant
Julie is our other hometown girl. Born and raised in San Antonio, she married her high school sweetheart and stayed in the area. Although this is only the second dental office that she has called home she is not new to dentistry. She spent 30 years assisting the same dentist, who unfortunately passed away one year after being diagnosed with breast cancer. For three years, Julie stepped away from dental assisting, not sure if she could assist again. What a blessing that she decided to try again because we’re thrilled to have her on our team!
Julie’s warm and caring disposition immediately puts patients at ease. Feel more comfortable speaking Spanish? No problem. Julie’s got you covered. You can definitely tell that she loves working with people. When she’s not working, she enjoys spending time with her husband, their four kids and two beautiful grandbabies. Family time often involves staying in, relaxing and watching movies.
