Administrative Staff

Our administrative team is the backbone of our practice, ensuring that every part of your experience — from your first phone call to your final follow-up — is seamless and stress-free. Whether you’re scheduling a consultation, verifying insurance, or checking in on surgery day, our front office staff is here to help with professionalism, efficiency, and a friendly smile.

Each team member is highly trained in scheduling, coordination and maintaining clear communication throughout the surgical process. They are committed to making sure you feel informed, supported, and cared for every step of the way.

We understand that oral surgery can feel overwhelming — our administrative team is here to make it easier, answering questions, addressing concerns, and ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.


Surgical Assistants

Our experienced surgical assistants play a vital role in ensuring every patient receives safe, efficient, and compassionate care. Working closely with our surgeons, they assist in a wide range of oral surgery procedures — from wisdom teeth removal and dental implant placement to more complex surgical treatments.

Each of our assistants is highly trained in surgical protocols, sterilization techniques, and patient monitoring. Beyond their technical expertise, they are dedicated to making patients feel comfortable, informed, and supported throughout their visit. Whether they’re preparing the treatment room, assisting during surgery, or providing post-operative care instructions, our surgical assistants are committed to excellence at every step. Their calm, caring presence helps create a smooth and reassuring experience for patients of all ages.
