Anne

Treatment Coordinator and Marketing Administrator

Anne

“While I was in college locally as a marketing major, I started helping a friend deliver dental lab cases to offices. I then was asked to help during a summer break at a dental office when the receptionist had left. There was no one to train me, so I learned from the ground up. I became fascinated with all aspects of dentistry and decided to make it a career.”

Anne loves to interact with patients. As to her philosophy of care, she listens and takes the time to understand their needs. For her, it is rewarding to help patients achieve their goals from start to finish. She also enjoys seeing new technologies being implemented in patient treatment.

“I truly enjoy helping a patient come up with a plan that fits their needs both dentally and financially and following it through.”

She wants patients to receive the highest level of care in the office. For her, it is also important that they feel they are part of a family.

“I hope their dental goals are met and they will be so happy that they send other patients to our office.”

 

CONNIE

Insurance Coordinator

“I graduated from college with a teaching degree, but the year I got out, in teaching, jobs were scarce. My neighbor, who was a dentist, offered me a temporary receptionist position to cover a maternity leave. After that three months, since I now had some experience and it was mid-schoolyear, I took a receptionist job with a periodontist and ended up staying there 22+ years. I have now been here 16 years with Dr. Morrison. I guess you could say the dental profession chose me.”

Connie enjoys meeting patients and getting to know them on a personal level. For her, it is a rewarding experience to deliver the kind of care they want and desire.

“It is particularly gratifying when the dental work changes their demeanor and their outlook on life and the future.”

Connie loves to have a friendly rapport with patients. Her philosophy is that the practice is not just a buisness but a dental family. She wants the patients to receive exceptional care in a caring and welcoming atmosphere.

“I hope I give patients the impression that I am professional and knowledgeable yet friendly and interested in them, both as patients and as people.”

In her spare time, Connie enjoys travelling, reading, gardening and socializing with family and friends. She has been the treasurer of the Ladies’ Auxiliary of her local Elks Lodge for more than 10 years and is involved in various activities.

“It is wonderful what we do for charity.”

Connie is also part of a dominoes group and an active member of her church. She has three stepchildren and seven grandchildren who live in Connecticut and Texas.

“I hope to give our patients an enjoyable and comfortable experience.”

She enjoys delivering quality dental care through the use of state-of-the-art technology and providing a comfortable experience so that patients are happy to return and refer their family and friends.

“I enjoy watching how satisfied patients are when treatment is completed, especially when new patients walk through the door very apprehensive and not smiling, and after treatment is completed, they are so happy they can’t stop smiling.”

Stacy makes sure that she listens to every patient’s concerns and needs.

“In order to provide the best dental experience, one must understand what the patient desires.”

She hopes to make her patients feel at ease as soon as they enter the practice.
