An important message from Maryjane Puffer, Executive Director, Los Angeles Trust for Children’s Health.
Thank you for your services. Unfortunately, some of our children would not receive the dental attention that is needed if it was not for your program. Vicki Haney, LPN Peters Elementary School
I always like having the Mobile Dentists come to my school, because I am so amazed they are able to see all our little ones and we never have a screaming episode. Everyone is always looking forward to seeing the Dentist. I never have parents displeased with the services or how they were conducted. I wish you would consider giving us one day of adult check ups! Yvette Franklin, Health Professional
Thank you for all you do. Some of our children would have no dental care if it weren’t for you. Carol Dzialak, BSN, RN, School Nurse Xavier School of Excellence
The dentists who come are great. They are warm and welcoming to our students, and our students love them! Thank you for always ensuring our visits run smoothly. Karoline Alexander, Community School Director
Susie was wonderful to work with in coordinating the visit. Ilundria Bardwell, RN
he dental team arrived on time and had their equipment set up and ready to go promptly. They were very professional and explained everything that was going to happen to the students before they began their individual tasks. We had some first time students who had never been seen by the program before, and they put those students as well as the others at ease. We would recommend them to any school. They were kind and welcoming to everyone, including staff who stopped in to see how the program works, and volunteers who helped coordinate the flow of students back and forth from the classrooms for treatments. Patricia Holston, RN, School Nurse
We loved the team that came! They truly sought to serve kids well, and worked hard to make sure everyone received excellent serve. Kalie George, Executive Director
Thank you for this much needed service for the students! Marie Newton, RN, School Nurse
This is such a wonderful program…the children ask frequently when the dentist is coming back! We are such a rural area that the closest dental facility that accepts some insurance programs is 90 minutes away. That means a full day of missed work for the parent, a full day of missed school for the student, and a very long drive. Thank you so much! Susan O’Bier, RN Northumberland Elementary School
This is a very valuable service to the student’s of Carroll County. The staff is very professional and work very well with the school and scheduling. It is a great program. I am so happy to have this available for our students. Lisa Frost, Head School Health Services Nurse
I love that I can offer this program to my students and their families. Everyone within the organization is friendly and helpful making the service very easy to set up for my school. The clinical staff that treat the kids are amazingly patient and understanding, especially with my fidgety and nervous kiddos. This program exceeds all expectations! Cara Dalton, School Nurse Hardy Elementary School
Friendly staff and very flexible. Thank you for helping our students. Rocio de Leon, Community Liaison
Dr. Ash and her team have a fabulous rapport with our children, and explain everything at their level so they understand the procedures. No fear or crying at all, and for K-2, that’s saying something! We really love this service and it is much needed in our community. Thank You! Michelle Hagglund, Registered Nurse
We are so thankful for the wonderful dental care your organization provides to our students. Many would not receive any dental care if it were not for the Mobile Dentists. Elizabeth J. Hollingsworth, RN, School Nurse
Love the team of Joi, Dr. King, and Pam….and others! You guys rock! So great with the students! Teresa Pratt, District Nurse
I was very pleased with the professionalism of the team. They were very caring and it was the best dental experience. Keep up the outstanding work! Kate Haenig, Social Worker
Thank you to the entire dental team for the wonderful service provided to our students. From start to finish everything was professional and organized. This was my first time having the Mobile Dentists at our school, and the feedback received from students, parents, and school staff was extremely positive. We are looking forward to having you back. Nadine Rickards, School Nurse
This service was one of the best resources that our school could have used. There are always so many students who don’t have a dentist and the parents don’t know where to go to get help for those students who need dental help. It’s so great that the dental team can come to the school to service the students. The school staff and parents thank Smile Programs so much for coming to help our students. Natasha Mayweather, RN, School Nurse Holy Family School
It is a great way to give the children dental service at no cost to parents, because sometimes our parents don’t have the money, nor the transportation to get them to the dentist. Sonia De La Torre, SAA
Efficient, friendly, flexible, and prompt! The hygienist came in to greet the office staff first thing in the morning. A few times I walked by the room where they were set up, and for a mobile unit it is an extremely professional set up. It was a pleasant experience for the staff and children. Thank you for a wonderful service to the community and children. Catherine Aldrich, Administrative Assistant
We are VERY pleased to be able to offer your services to our students. Thank you so much! Angela Vass, RN Carroll County
It is a pleasure to work with an efficient and caring team! Saundra L. Davis, RN, School Nurse Lincoln Elementary School
Dr. Cindy and Dawn are wonderful! They are great at easing the minds of the frightened kids. Jennifer Vaughn, District Nurse
The team was wonderful. They worked through their lunch to fit in all my students. The students and parents were so pleased with the dental care. The delivery was organized and effective, and minimally disruptive to the school day. I can’t wait to have them at our school again. Sarah Kupchick, RN, BSN, CSN
Excellent service! Thank You! Kathleen Perry, RN, School Nurse
Your program is wonderful, and has been coming to my school approximately 4 years. When asked about the program, I recommend it to all NNPS nurses. Pat Inge, RN, School Nurse
Working with the staff at the Mobile Dentists office was very easy. They were very accommodating when choosing a visit date and were very efficient while processing the students’ permission forms. The staff from the Little Smiles New Jersey program that came to Mastery McGraw Elementary School were wonderful. They were prompt with their arrival and were very professional and friendly with the students and staff at our school. They saw 22 students at the visit and each student benefited from the work the dentist and dental hygienist did on their teeth. We have already scheduled our next visit for the fall and cannot wait to have the mobile dentists back at McGraw to see and help more of our students. Thank you! Chelsea Trach RN, BSN, School Nurse
The team is always great and very happy to be here. We love having them here! Renee Johnson, Health Tech
