Growing Again! Our New Hygienist!

We are so delighted to announce the hiring of Connie Raymer as our 3rd hygienist for additional coverage on Saturdays. She has previously worked with myself and our other hygienists Gloria and Megan at the Tavistock location where I previously associated. Her personality is outgoing and relaxed while her hygiene style is similar to Gloria and Megan`s. (She`s also a foodie like the rest of the staff :)
