“Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. It is the ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.”
—Andrew Carnegie
Sharon Hansen - Business Manager
“Naming what I like about being here is easy. It’s the group of people I work with. I often hear Kathy, Dr. Reynolds wife; use the expression “we’re family here”. I believe our patients can sense the camaraderie in the atmosphere. Sharing a work day with others who help make it enjoyable is the ultimate in job satisfaction!”
Have a question about your treatment plan, dental insurance, or financing? Sharon is the one to speak with. As our Business Manager and Marketing Assistant, Sharon brings a wealth of dental knowledge to her job. A former dental assistant, she also attained her dental hygiene license through the University of Alabama in Birmingham.
Her favorite past-times include reading, writing, walking, and movies! She and her husband, Rod, enjoy traveling and spending time with family.
Tammy Parisi, R.D.H. – Dental Hygienist
“Working here allows me to practice with confidence. As a hygienist I see things the average person does not. And I know quality dentistry when I see it! When a patient is in need of some type of treatment, it is gratifying to know that when they return to see Dr. Reynolds for the procedure, they will receive the absolute BEST!”
Maintaining that beautiful smile is a passion of our dental hygienist, Tammy Parisi. Joining Dr. Reynolds team in 1993 as a dental assistant, Tammy later received her Dental Hygiene degree from Tennessee State University in Nashville.
