Lyndsay
Treatment Coordinator
Hi, I’m Lyndsay. I am an orthodontic assistant who loves to create beautiful smiles chairside with Dr. Brown, and I’ve been assisting since 2003. I really enjoy the relationships we build in our practice and the interaction I have with our patients, thus making their visit a fun, positive experience. My goal is to have our patients feel cared for and at ease by explaining what we have planned for their appointment before we even get started. I am married and have 3 children. Outside of work, I enjoy watching my kid’s sports activities and competitions. My hobbies are dirt biking, wakeboarding, snowboarding and camping.
Tammie
Scheduling Coordinator
Hello, I’m Tammie! I have worked at Sunnyside Orthodontics for 21 years, watching our patients grow up and achieve beautiful smiles. The best part of my day begins with our families that walk through our door. Our patients are greeted with a warm friendly smile, following their visit, I set up appointments to fit conveniently into their busy lives. It is such an enjoyable experience to get to know our patients and to watch their confidence improve as their teeth straighten into a stunning smile that they can be proud of for a lifetime. I am married with three children, and enjoy spending time with my grandchildren, and play with my Doodle Dog named Daisy. In my free time I love to travel, bike, hike, garden, knit and craft.
