Our Office Staff
You know, you can learn a lot about a dental staff simply by observing
how they handle your phone calls. That's why at our practice we make sure
to give each caller our undivided attention, adequate time, and careful,
thorough answers to every question.
And that same personalized care applies to the way each and every one
of our staff members handle you in person, as well. We want to be certain
that you feel comfortable, welcome, listened to and cared for; both professionally
and personally. Plus, we want to be sure that you understand every detail
of your diagnosis and treatment options, so that you can take your rightful
role as the director of our team in determining your own outcome.
So yes, you can count on our experience, our training, and our teamwork.
Most of us have worked together, and worked hard at staying on top, for
a long, long time. But even beyond these important factors, we simply
hope you'll find that our compassion is unforgettable.
Dori Bork, Patient Care Coordinator

Gloria
has spent her entire dental career - 28 years of it - growing in

And Gloria's energy and enthusiasm doesn't stop with her work. Not long
ago, she started a chocolate business and a jewelry business, offshoots
of her hobbies. Her family includes husband Bob, three sons, and now--
two twin granddaughters—about whom she'd love to tell you in person! |
