Get to Know Our Team

Angie

Receptionist

Hi! My name is Angie and I will greet you with a big smile when you arrive. I enjoy getting to know people and look forward to building a relationship with you. In addition to checking you in, I’ll help you schedule visits, always finding a time that works with your busy life. I’ll also review your financing options, including CareCredit and ensure you get the most from your insurance. I’ve been working in the dental field since 2009 and know I’ve found my home here at First Dental. I’m here to help, so please don’t hesitate to ask if there’s anything you need!

When I’m not working, I’m usually spending time with husband, son, and our two dogs: a Doberman Pincher and a Wired Dachshund. We enjoy family time and trying new things.

Karen

Front Office

Hello, I’m Karen and you’ll meet me when you arrive. I work in our front office, making sure everything runs smoothly. I enjoy working with new people and introducing them to First Dental. I also like strengthening relationships and hearing the latest news from established patients. I joined the team in 2001 and love how everyone here focuses on each patient’s comfort and needs. I greet patients, answer the phones, schedule visits, and handle insurance verification and tracking. I also oversee accounts receivable. I’m busy, but never too busy for a chat or to answer your questions!

In my spare time, I enjoy being with family and friends. My husband and I both like traveling and love exploring new and exciting places.

Lindsay

Bookkeeper

Hello and welcome! I’m Lindsay and I tend to work behind the scenes at our practice. I joined First Dental in 1998 and can’t imagine being happy anywhere else. We have the best doctors and staff, who offer gentle care that will have you smiling. As our practice bookkeeper, I handle our bills and process payroll. I also gladly help out wherever I’m needed. I enjoy both the predictability of bookkeeping and the challenge of problem-solving other needs in our office.

I’ve been married for more than 10 years and have two little boys. I love playing with my kids and taking care of my family. Each week, I enjoy time at my church, exercising at the gym, and working on crafts projects.

Michelle M.

Registered Dental Hygienist

I love working with people. As a dental hygienist, I’ll help you achieve a healthy mouth and smile, and hope to become your friend, too. I started working as a dental assistant in 1989 and enjoyed it so much I went to dental hygiene school and then joined First Dental in 1998. I perform thorough oral hygiene evaluations and then will gently clean your teeth. While doing so, I’ll talk with you about your specific dental health concerns. Together, we’ll figure out the home care processes and changes you can make that will keep your smile healthy and looking its best.

I’m married and have two young children. Our family also has two wonderful cats. In my leisure time, I enjoy being with my family and friends. My favorite hobby, for the past 30 years, is exercising and staying healthy.
