Amie has been a part of Dr. Patterson’s team since 1997.

“Going to the dentist as a child was always such a great experience.  I have always wanted a career where I would be helping others.  I felt that the dental field could be both fun and rewarding at the same time.  Everyday we have the opportunity to help our patients either feel better and/or look better by fulfilling their dental needs.  Dentistry has definitely been the right career choice for me.”

Charlene has been a part of Dr. Patterson’s team since 1978.

“My interest in dentistry began at an early age when I went to the dentist.  I was curious about all the “tools” the dentist used.  By the time I was in the eighth grade, I had decided to be a dental hygienist.  After that nothing distracted me from my goal.  Dental hygiene is a profession that suits my personality.  The relationship with the patients keeps me encouraged.  I wouldn’t want to do anything else.”

Cheryl has been a part of Dr. Patterson’s team since 2001.

“I have worked in the dental field for over 25 years.  The majority of that time was spent in oral surgery.  I worked as an assistant for 18 years before shifting into the practice administration role.  I find general dentistry more rewarding because we help patients achieve their dental goals and help them feel good about their smile.  The impact this has on a person’s life is its own reward.”
