Lacey, Patient Care Coordinator
By far, Lacey's favorite part of this job is getting to work so closely with Dr. Clark each day. They both believe in making excellent patient care a top priority! A Wichita native, she completed her education at Wichita State University.
Outside of the dental office, Lacey is married to her best friend and has been blessed with four "bonus" kids, three "bonus" grandkids, and five four-legged "kids." As for hobbies, she enjoys going on walks with the dogs, listening to music, working in the yard, and restoring a 1977 Chevy Nova! She also recently discovered a talent for baking and has had tons of fun making all kinds of delicious sugar cookies and cupcakes.
Susi, Dental Assistant
Susi is a relatively new hire, but don’t let that fool you – she has plenty of dental experience! Since graduating from WSU Tech’s Dental Assistant Program, she’s worked in dentistry for over five years. In particular, she’s helped a variety of dentists and learned specialized techniques. Of course, her time in the field has also given her a love of helping patients get better smiles.
Born and raised in Mexico, Susi has a strong love for her family. This fact isn’t too surprising, though, as she’s grown up with three siblings and 11 nieces or nephews! Plus, much of her time is spent with her “fur children” – one cat and three dogs she loves to spoil.
Wendi, Dental Hygienist
Wendi wasn’t just born here; she also completed her studies here! She earned her associate degree in dental hygiene from Wichita State University, and she has nearly two decades of experience in dentistry now. She is happy to use all of her training and experience to help our patients feel completely relaxed and at home while they’re in her care.
Wendi and her husband of 29 years, Scott, have two grown daughters. On the evenings and weekends, she enjoys gardening, renewing old furniture, and spending time with her five fur babies. Here’s a fun fact about her: she has an identical twin!
