Ana Gallegos

Since January 2009, Ana has been working with us, seeing changes and the satisfaction of lots of patients. Even though she had worked at various places as a dental assistant, she had never worked at an orthodontic office before, which is what she likes the most of here. In addition to being kind, Ana is always smiling and enjoys chatting with all our patients.

Cecilia Córdova

Ceci is the treatment coordinator at Dr. Alex’s office, as well as being a dental assistant. Since she had never had this opportunity before, she now really enjoys it because she learns new things and meets different types of people. The work environment and direct contact with patients are her greatest satisfaction. Ceci is currently studying to become an accountant and hopes to obtain her degree soon.

Juan A. Abundis

As the maintenance attendant, Juan has diverse responsibilities with us. When he first started, he was enticed by the accessible and laid-back job, but after learning so much, especially since starting with no knowledge of dental offices, he knows his position is essential here. Since November 2013, Juan feels happy with his work and appreciates when patients interact with him, are amicable and form friendships.

Rosa Ramos

Rozy is Dr. Alex’s Principal assistant. Although she had previous experience with other dental offices, Rozy really likes her job and finds it interesting, especially orthodontics since she can see the results patients obtain and how they provide us with their trust. Her biggest satisfaction is to contribute to treatments and working in the dental laboratory. She currently lives here in Nuevo Progreso and considers herself “very serious.” :P

Yanely Garcés

Currently in her early 20’s, Yanely is one of Dr. Romero’s assistants. She is very happy to be working with us since 2012. She had previously worked as a dental assistant, but nowadays she enjoys it even more since daily she sees how patients arrive with discomfort and leave with a smile, delighted with our team work. She also appreciates the companionship of her co-workers and patients.
