Summary
As an Orthodontic Assistant with 6 years of experience, I’m passionate about making each patient’s journey as smooth and comfortable as possible. Im always open to learn new things and adapt quickly, but what I love most is the opportunity to connect with patients and help them feel at ease. My attention to detail and teamwork with orthodontists ensures we deliver the best care, and I always aim to make every visit a positive experience for those I work with ( check out my goggle reviews for snow orthodontics located in lancanster, ca ).
