Linda is often the first friendly face you’ll see when you walk into our office.
She has been part of our team since July 2020 and has worked in the dental field since 2000. She began her career as an expanded duties dental assistant before transitioning into front office and coordination roles in 2015.
With extensive knowledge in both treatment planning and insurance, Linda helps make every patient experience smooth and stress-free.
Outside the office, Linda is a proud mother of three children who enjoy rodeo activities. She loves camping, four-wheeling, attending concerts, and cheering for her lifelong favorite team—the Dallas Cowboys.
