Maria
Office Manager
I have spent the past 31 years working as our office manager, and am responsible for coordinating insurance, treatment planning, scheduling, and billing. I understand how confusing the insurance industry can be, so I do whatever I can to help make the process as easy and stress-free as possible for our patients. I have been happily married for 21 years with a grown son and daughter. I love living in Cooper City and enjoy biking, camping, canoeing, and playing with all six of my pets.
Cami
Front Desk Coordinator
I work in our front office, where I oversee reception, appointment scheduling, and our laboratory. My career here began in 1998 but I’ve spent more than 40 years working in the dental field. It has been so wonderful to work with the many patients who have been with us for years. Seeing families grow up healthy is always a treat. I am a native New Yorker and love living in the Pembroke Pines area. I love spending time with family and my beautiful baby granddaughter whenever I get the chance.
Persida
Front Desk Coordinator
I am responsible for checking patients in and out, acquiring insurance information, and answering the phones with a cheerful voice and helpful attitude. Many of our patients have been coming here for years, and it’s been wonderful to create emotional bonds with them. Everyone on our team cares about our patients and goes out of our way to make sure everyone is comfortable. I was born and raised in New York and moved to Florida seven years ago. I truly love the relaxed atmosphere here!
Brenda
Dental Hygienist
I began working in dentistry in 1970 as an assistant and became a dental hygienist in 1972. Fourteen years later I joined Dr. Yanowitz’s team, and love coming to work to care for our patients’ health. I enjoy helping apprehensive patients overcome the fears they have of dentistry and helping them achieve optimal oral health. I am married to the love of my life, Jeff, and we have two adult children. In my spare time I love to read and exercise.
Donna
Dental Hygienist
I truly enjoy working in the dental profession. I have been employed in all aspects over the past 30 years, from working in a dental lab, at the front desk, as a dental assistant, and lastly in dental hygiene. I attended Miami Dade Hygiene School, where I graduated with honors. I love working with people, helping to educate them and communicate to them the need for good dental health. I am the mother of two teenage girls and married to a wonderful man for more than 20 years. When not at work I enjoy caring for my orchids, reading, camping, and cooking.
Connie
Head Dental Assistant
I assist our doctors with all procedures and am in charge of communications with dental supply companies as our ordering coordinator. I love meeting new people and seeing the smile on people’s faces when they see what modern dentistry can do and how painless it is when done correctly. I have been married to my husband, Charlie, since 1990. We have a daughter, Hayley, attending the University of Florida, and a daughter, Aubrey, who is still in high school. In my spare time I enjoy reading and spending time with my family.
Felica
Dental Assistant
I look forward to building great friendships with our patients and their families, and making sure that everybody who comes to our practice feels welcome and comfortable. I interact with my patients as if they are a part of my very own family. I genuinely take to heart any interests, concerns, or questions that arise. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing the reaction on the face of a patient when they are told their treatment is complete! When I’m not in the office I enjoy watching my son grow up to be a young man and coaching cheerleading.
Gaye
Dental Assistant
Although I started working with Dr. Yanowitz two years ago, my dental career began in 1982. I work alongside our dentists to make sure each patient is comfortable and well informed regarding their dental treatments. It is my goal to make each person fear-free when it comes to their dental appointment. In my free time I love to travel and watch sports. I volunteer with different organizations, including Habit for Humanity, Big Brother/Big Sister, and give of my time at a dental clinic for those less fortunate.
