Meet The Team

Our knowledgeable and friendly staff has over 45 years of combined dental experience. We strive to make your visits with us as comfortable and pleasant as possible.
 
Tina, Clinical Coordinator
 
From scheduling your appointment to answering clinical and insurance questions, Tina will handle your needs with professionalism and grace, drawing from over 16 years of dental experience as a Dental Assistant (DA II).  Born into a family of 12 siblings, she learned the importance of effective communication at an early age.  Tina says she enjoys getting to know the patients. “I'm a people person,” she says.  When she isn't helping patients, she can be found spending time with her husband and three children.  “The majority of the time, we're at one of the kid's events,”  Tina says.  Outside of being a proud spectator at soccer games, golf matches and cheerleading events, Tina can be found on the beach, poolside, or cycling.

 



Kara D., Dental Assistant
A natural at making people comfortable, Kara will do everything she can to make your experience as pleasant as possible. The dental assistant enjoys both interacting with patients and being able to see endodontics from a closer perspective, thanks to our assistant-side microscopes used during treatment. “You can see what's going on,” she says. “It's interesting to see what the doctor sees.”  When her focus isn't on patients, Kara enjoys competitively riding her horse in both jumping and dressage.  She also enjoys spending time with her family--from mountain camping trips to watching football.
 
 
 
 

Kara H., Administrative & Dental Assistant

Filling in the gaps of the office, Kara may schedule your appointment or assist during treatment.  Regardless of the position, she'll do it with excellence and a smile.  As a former award-winning journalism student and newspaper reporter, Kara has excellent organizational skills.  Kara says she enjoys the patient interaction and the learning environment of the office.  "There's always something new to learn," she says.  "Looking through the assistant scope, you see and learn things that you may not have a chance to otherwise. As we implement newer technologies in the office, we get more training on the job.  It's fun."  When Kara isn't filling in, she can be found with her husband on the go with one-year-old daughter on her hip.  "I really can't imagine life without her," she says.   Kara also enjoys painting, gardening, and writing in her spare time.

  

Libbye, Administrative Assistant

Regardless of her task, Libbye completes it with a true servant's heart.  "I enjoy taking care of people and getting them everything they need--being of service," she says.  From picking up office supplies to organizing and stocking, Libbye keeps the loose ends of the office tied neatly in a bow.  With over 25 years serving the public in a variety of roles, she is a valuable asset. Outside of the office, Libbye enjoys reading, yoga, traveling, and spending time with her three grandchildren.  "I love those babies so much," says Libbye.  "They are the apple of my eye."
