Mary
Practice Administrator
I am responsible for all aspects of our front office, from answering phones and scheduling appointments to presenting treatment options and dealing with insurance benefits. I have over 20 years of experience working in the dental field and was happy to join The Village Dental Center in 2006. It is my goal to help create a positive experience while helping our patients achieve excellent oral health and beautiful smiles.
My husband, Bill, and I are originally from Chicago, IL. We have two lovely daughters; one daughter still resides in Chicago and one in Minnesota. We are blessed to have two darling grandchildren that we visit often. My free time is spent working with a golden retriever rescue organization, doing marriage ministry in our church, swimming, walking, and watching Diamondbacks baseball.
Amy
Patient Care Coordinator
My responsibilities are divided between working at the front desk and directly with Dr. Harmon. When I am not working on patients, I am in the front office or helping the hygienists stay on task. I began my dental career in 1987 while still in high school. I have worked in all aspects of the dental office and enjoy having the opportunity to continue to do so. I have been working in the Sun City West community for the past 16 years and became a part of The Village Dental Center in November 2013. I feel very fortunate to have a career that I love so much and the opportunity to work so closely with people.
My husband of 17 years, Ron, and I are both originally from the Midwest. We have two kids in high school; both are doing well and are involved in sports and various clubs. We also have a beagle named Daisy that's 10 years old. Some of our favorite things to do are traveling in our camper, going to sporting events, cooking, and organizing events/parties for friends and family.
Colleen
Dental Hygienist
My patients' oral health is my top priority, and I provide cleanings, education, and periodontal care. I graduated from Northern Arizona University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Dental Hygiene in 1985 and joined this team in 2007. My favorite part of hygiene is working with patients while creating relationships and helping them to become healthier overall. It is great to work in an office where we are a team with the same vision for our patients.
I am married to my wonderful husband, Bob, and we have two beautiful daughters and 2 wonderful son-in-laws and two dogs. I am very involved in my church; God has truly blessed me and I am very grateful.
Becky
Dental Hygienist
Like all other members of our dental team, I strive to give our patients a positive dental experience and one-on-one education customized to each individual's oral health needs. I graduated from Phoenix College in 1999 with an Associate of Science Degree in Dental Hygiene, and I also graduated from Arizona State University with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Education. I have worked in a periodontal office, as well as family practice offices, and have worked in Sun City West since 2000. I am very excited to become a part of a dynamic practice here at The Village Dental Center.
Prior to my dental hygiene career, I worked with my husband building a printing business and raising our now-grown son and two daughters. I have been married since 1979 to my husband Ron. Now that we are empty-nesters, we especially enjoy traveling together, and are looking forward to becoming grandparents soon, thanks to our older daughter and son-in-law. We are both active in our church community and in my spare time, I love to sew and machine embroider.
Tracie
Dental Assistant
I work directly with Dr. Harmon in taking care of our wonderful patients and making sure our back office runs smoothly. I began my dental career in 1992 and became a member of The Village Dental Center team in March of 2007. The best part of my job is by far the relationships I am able to create with my patients. Their comfort is my priority, and it's great to see them smile after a pleasant office visit.
I have been married to my husband, Greg, since 1993 and we have three children who are all doing very well in school. We also have a Lhasa-Poo named Goddard. As a family, we love to spend time with our friends and going on trips up state.
Katie
Dental Assistant
I started my dental career in May of 2012 by going back to school to become a Dental Assistant. I was able to complete my 300 hour externship at The Village Dental and fell in love with how everyone in the office worked together and what a huge part the patients really are to the dental family here. Making sure the patient is comfortable and informed are my two biggest concerns. Whether it is a patient who is coming to our office for the first time or someone who has been here for 10 years, building an honest and inviting relationship is something I truly strive for when coming to work every day.
I am a true Arizona native, born and raised in Glendale/Peoria. My fiancé and I live in the Wild West of Wittmann; with a blended family of 4 children (1 girl and 3 boys) and two little dogs. We wanted to give them the space to run, ride their bikes, or go quad riding all in their own backyard! We all enjoy family movies nights, camping, and going up north to Flagstaff. I look forward to meeting you or just saying hello again!
