An important message from Maryjane Puffer, Executive Director, Los Angeles Trust for Children’s Health.
The Mobile Dentist program continues to impress me every year. The office staff does an amazing job taking care of all the details. The dental team is professional and so easy to work with. They are EXCELLENT with our students. We are so happy about the restorative care that is now available as well. We look forward to your visits. You are making a huge difference in the lives of our students. Thank you! Joanne Witts, RN, District Nurse
The dentist and hygienist did an amazing job! In addition to the usual dental check-up, they did a lot of health teaching as well. They gave each child individualized attention and made sure each child felt good about him or her self, even if they had a cavity! I really liked that! They were sensitive to student needs and very nice to deal with. We can’t wait for them to come again! Hagit Stone, School Nurse
The staff worked extremely well with our 3-5 year old students and our autistic students. They are always pleasant, well organized, and efficient! Mary Tolmie, MSN, RN, CSN, School Nurse
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
Excellent service! Thank You! Kathleen Perry, RN, School Nurse

Stephen Girard Elementary School in Philadelphia looks forward to your visits in the future. Andrea McCoy, CSN, BSN, MHed, 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
Your entire staff was excellent, professional, and very pleasant!! It was a joy and an honor to work with them as they provided a valuable service to our students.
