TEAM MEMBER HIGHLIGHT: JESSICA Celebrating 2 Years of Steadfast Service

For this newsletter edition, we want to introduce our wonderful front desk and financial coordinator, Jessica! On Dec. 5, Jessica is celebrating her two-year anniversary as part of the Lehigh Valley Smile Designs team. Before she joined us, Jessica was working in a doctor’s office, where she spent her time doing what she loved. “I’ve always enjoyed helping people, interacting with patients, and providing excellent customer service people can rely on,” Jessica says proudly. “Being able to help people better themselves and help them toward living healthier lives means a lot to me.” In addition to this, Jessica also delights in giving tours of the office to new patients, getting to know everyone she meets, and ensuring they receive the best care. The medical and dental fields have always been a source of interest for Jessica. “Moving from a doctor’s office to a dental practice was something completely different. Dr. Petrillo and the rest of our team have helped me learn so much in the years I’ve spent here,

and it’s all so fascinating. I can’t imagine myself being anywhere else. Everyone here gets along really well, like a big family, and everyone on the team is extremely knowledgeable. It’s undeniable that the team here really cares about people.” When Jessica finds some free time outside of the office, she enjoys spending time and traveling with her family. “I love going to Boston to spend a few days there with the family and watching movies. We’re really into settling down and watching a few good movies for family time.” Lehigh Valley Smile Designs is proud to have someone so kind and enthusiastic on our team. We want to congratulate Jessica for being on our team these past two years, and we are all looking forward to many more!
