About The Center

Judy, Office Coordinator
Judy has been the office coordinator for 10 years. Judy’s son, Jacob, keeps her on the go, as he is very active in sports. In her spare time Judy enjoys scrapbooking, beach trips, a quiet cup of tea and lots of chocolate. An integral part of the team, Judy keeps everyone in the practice in sync and is most likely the first and last smiling face you see when you come visit our office. God has blessed her with a gorgeous smile and many opportunities to dazzle us with it! If you have questions about your bill, need to schedule an appointment, or would like more information about aesthetic and reconstructive dentistry, call or email Judy.
