Amy , LDA

Practice Manager

Amy is the dedicated Practice Manager at Wood Park Dental. She is known as the "ear" of the office, always ready to listen and eager to find solutions. Amy strives to create a space where patients feel truly heard and cared for, leading a team that takes pride in putting others first—both patients and colleagues. She got her start in dentistry back in 1999 as a high school sophomore working in a private practice and has been hooked ever since. For almost two years now, she has been a part of the Wood Park Dental team, where teamwork, laughter, and patient connections make every day special.

Amy graduated from Century College with her Dental Assisting diploma in 2002 and is currently working toward earning her FAADOM, a professional milestone she is excited to achieve. She discovered her passion for the field early on, as dentistry truly runs in her family, with an uncle who is a dental lab technician and an aunt who is a retired dental assistant. Amy is grateful to have a career that allows her to learn, grow, and achieve something new every day. Her work happy place is built on teamwork, laughter, and connection, supporting her colleagues and building meaningful relationships with her patients. Our patients inspire her to be her best, and as a team, she is dedicated to providing exceptional, patient-centered care.

Outside of work, Amy enjoys spending time with friends and family. She shares several hobbies with her amazing husband, including home brewing and taking their Corvette out for rides in the summer. Amy also has a red lab and two cats. Additionally, she partners with her mother to sell handmade 11.5 doll dresses at craft shows. When she needs stress relief, she loves spending time with her eight nieces and nephews, embracing the chance to "be a kid" again. A fun fact about Amy is that she is a huge Disney fan—Winnie the Pooh is her favorite—and she has a great love for teddy bears. If you ever want to win the way to her heart, look no further than bears and chocolate!
