Sandy
Accounts Payable
At our practice, I work behind the scenes to ensure that our office runs as smoothly as possible for our patients. By making sure our finances are attended to, I help to create a harmonious atmosphere for each person who comes to us for treatment. Even though I do not interact directly with our family of patients, I love being a part of a practice that is completely focused on providing the best care possible. At home, my husband and I have two children and four grandchildren. I enjoy watching movies, knitting, and traveling.
Sharon
Orthodontic Assistant
In addition to assisting our doctors with providing phenomenal patient care, I also act as a clinical coordinator for our practice. Whether I’m helping to make sure our clinic operates efficiently or working one-on-one with our amazing patients to help them look and feel better, not a day goes by that I am not excited to come to work. My husband, Tommy, and I have two furry children – our dogs, Sadie and Brandy. When I have spare time, I love fishing, boating, gardening, and generally just doing anything outdoors, especially when the sun is shining.
Nan
Financial Coordinator
As our financial coordinator, I make sure our accounts receivables are in good order, and I do everything I can to ensure our patients are getting the most out of their insurance packages. I absolutely love my job because I am helping our patients receive the orthodontic care that they need and deserve. Paying for orthodontic care is never easy on a family, and I feel fortunate to be able to help make our patients’ lives less stressful. I really love working with our staff and doctors because they all care so much for the people who come to us for treatment. I have been married to my husband, Steve, for 35 years. We have two daughters, Keely and Kaylen, who have given us three adorable grandchildren. We also have a dog and three adopted cats. In my free time, I enjoy cooking and watching the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Devil Rays.

In our office, I help out by answering phones, printing and mailing letters, and working hard to schedule the most convenient appointment times for our patients’ busy lives. Like everyone else who works here, I love doing everything I can to provide our patients the most rewarding and caring orthodontic experience possible. Our patients are incredible! They are all so unique and fascinating, and I feel very lucky to have such a wonderful career. My daughter, Ariana, is the light of my life, and I love spending as much time as I can with her. I am at home anywhere in the outdoors, and I love sitting by the fire and relaxing.

I have the awesome job of fabricating the orthodontic appliances that are going to help our patients receive the most beautiful smiles. We are in the business of giving our patients healthier and happier lives, and I am very fortunate to be a part of such a positive and beneficial experience that we provide to our family of patients. I have an amazing family at home, and it consists of my husband, Michael, and our kids, Trevor and Maddie. We also have a cat named Pumpkin and a dog, Crash. I love to travel, hang out at the beach, bake some delicious food, and spend my free time with my family and friends.

As one of our orthodontic assistants, I spend my days in our practice by helping our doctors provide our patients gorgeous and life-changing smiles. My favorite part of my job is building great relationships with the people in our chairs, and I love being a part of their incredible journey to a bright and beautiful new smile. Our doctors are great because they keep the atmosphere as laid back as possible, and they are always teaching us new things that help us be better at what we do for our patients. I am married to a wonderful mechanic named Drew, and we love to go fishing. I also enjoy shopping, spending the day on the boat, and being with my family and friends.
Carrie
Orthodontic Assistant
Every day, I get the opportunity to come to a job where I am able to make amazing differences in people’s lives. Helping our doctors chairside with our patients, I’ve created so many incredible relationships with some of the most interesting and unique people. Everything we do here has the patient at the center, and when I see them smile after their treatment is complete, the reward is amazing! My seven-year-old son, Masyn, is the best thing to ever happen to me, and I love spending all the time I can with him. I also have an awesome boyfriend of four years, and he has two boys of his own – Wyatt and Walker. I feel so fortunate to have such a great little family! We all enjoy air boating, mud bogging, fishing, and hunting together.

Our practice is a fun place to work, but what impresses me most is how committed our doctors and staff are to providing the best orthodontic care possible.

They are always providing educational courses so that we are able to give our patients the best and most rewarding orthodontic experience around.
