I like welcoming and talking with our patients. I want each person to feel comfortable and at home during their visits, and to know we are here for them. I handle a variety of front office duties in addition to greeting and checking in patients. My favorite is helping people maximize their dental insurance benefits, so they get the care they need when they need it, without stress.
I also handle treatment and financial coordination, billing, and collections. My family keeps me busy: I have a grown son and daughter and six grandchildren. I love gardening, decorating and, weather permitting, you'll find my significant other and I on the golf course. I have been in dentistry for over 15 years. I enjoy helping and interacting with patients.
I am happy to answer your questions, plan for appointments, help resolve concerns and make your visits positive. My desire is to contribute to the positve experience each patient can expect to have in our office. I am new to dentistry and am grateful to have been chosen to work in our Lakewood location helping Kathy.

As a dentist, I love that I get to work with a diverse group of people, from toddlers through seniors.
Getting to know each on a personal level, and establishing a lifelong relationship with them, is important to me.
I believe in actively listening to my patients and encourage them to tell me about their goals and concerns.
I find working with people who have dental anxiety to be particularly rewarding.
Together with my team, I help that person work through and overcome their fears.

Teeth grinding, or bruxism, refers to excessive grinding of the teeth and/or excessive clenching of the jaw, usually occurring when one sleeps.
If you wake up with jaw pain, tension headaches, or facial pain, you may be suffering from bruxism.
Some people aren't even aware they are grinding or clenching their teeth at night, until a visit to us reveals significant tooth enamel loss or damage to restorations.
Tension, stress, and anxiety experienced during the daytime can carry over to an individual's sleep, and lead the person to grind his or her teeth together or clench the teeth unknowingly.
