Dr. Montoya

I worked a day for an awesome pediatric dentist in Queen Creek ( Johnson Ranch) named Dr. Montoya.  He was a great dentist and very professional.  Throughout the day, he would share with me his thoughts and philosophies on how to take care of patients.  He was so delightful to work for and the entire staff was so accommodating to me by helping me with process of care and keeping me on schedule.  I was also able to teach them a couple of things about Dentrix, though G4 ran very slow.  I left that office with a wonderful feeling.  I remembered I LOVE what I do because

• I can help people feel good about themselves by teaching them about little things they can do to take care of their oral and systemic health
• I can build confidence in people by showing them simple ways to take care of their mouths and bodies
• I can create positive dental experiences for patients of all ages by comforting them and encouraging them to take care of their mouths.

Introducing the Professional Me

I introduce myself on this site to share my professional side.  I am blessed to have the skills and license to practice dental hygiene.  I love it.  I love working with my patients and giving them the best care possible.  I love that I'm able to help my patients and they help me more than they know.

I am sad to leave a practice in Gilbert where I have worked for the past 5 years.  The patients there were more than just patients, but dear friends.  I grew to the point I needed to move on to continue to grow personally and professionally.  I am up for the challenge and am excited to learn and grow at the office I'm at in Mesa with Dr. Michael J. Smith.  New adventures and growth await me there, and I am excited to share those experiences here, on my professional side
