Melessa Johnson, Practice Manager
As our practice manager, Mel finds the dental world fascinating, particularly the changing attitudes towards treatments and technologies in the field.
My role allows me the privilege of helping our patients navigate their dental journey, whether that is through general dentistry, complex dentistry, implants or orthodontics. I also love the connections that we build with our patients as they become part of our dental family.
Mel possesses more than 17 years of experience as a practice manager. She stays abreast of the latest in the field by taking professional development courses. She always loves to learn something new.
Outside of work, Mel loves spending time with her three beautiful boys. She also enjoys doing embroidery and cross stitch, reading and collecting skulls.
