The People You'll Meet

A Team That Makes Haverford Township Feel at Home

Walk through our doors on Darby Road and you'll notice something right away: nobody here is rushing you. Our team spends their days answering insurance questions, calming nervous first-timers, and making sure appointments start on time and end with you feeling taken care of. Most of them have been with the practice for years, which means they remember your name, your kids' names, and probably which chair you like best.

Behind the scenes, our hygienists, treatment coordinators, and administrative staff work together so that your visit feels organized rather than rushed. Someone double-checks your insurance before you arrive. Someone else makes sure the room is ready the moment the dentist calls you back. It is a lot of quiet coordination, and it is the reason so many patients tell us their visits feel easier here than they expected.

Each team member's profile page shares a bit more about their background, how long they've been practicing, and what they enjoy about working with Haverford Township patients. Browse the cards below to put a name and a story to the faces you'll see at your next appointment.

Questions About Our Team

Getting to Know the People Who Care for You

Who do I talk to about scheduling or rescheduling an appointment?

Our front desk coordinators handle all scheduling, so they're your first call for booking, rescheduling, or canceling a visit. You can reach them during office hours at (610) 486-5590, or request an appointment anytime through our online booking link. If you have a question about a recent visit or an upcoming treatment plan, they can also connect you directly with your hygienist or dentist.

What happens when I arrive for my first visit?

You'll check in at our front desk, where our coordinators will confirm your insurance details and walk you through any paperwork that still needs completing. From there, a hygienist or assistant will bring you back to a treatment room, review your health history, and prepare you for your exam or cleaning. We try to keep the whole process relaxed and unhurried, especially for patients who are new to the office or feeling a little anxious.

Who should I contact about insurance or billing questions?

Our treatment coordinators and front desk staff manage insurance verification and billing, and they're glad to walk through coverage details, payment plans, or estimated out-of-pocket costs before any treatment begins. It's best to call ahead of your visit so we can confirm your benefits in advance. For details on which plans we accept, you can also visit our Insurance page.

Will I see the same hygienist or assistant at every visit?

We try to keep patients with the same hygienist whenever scheduling allows, since familiarity tends to make cleanings and checkups more comfortable. That said, our whole team is trained to the same standard, so if your usual hygienist isn't available, you're still in experienced hands. Your chart and notes travel with you regardless of who is in the room that day.

How does the team help nervous patients or kids feel comfortable?

Our assistants and hygienists are used to working with patients of all ages and comfort levels, and they take time to explain each step before it happens rather than just diving in. For children, that often means a quick, friendly tour of the tools before any cleaning starts. For anxious adults, it might mean pausing more often or talking through what to expect next. Letting us know ahead of time about any concerns helps the team plan your visit accordingly.

Can I request a specific team member for my cleaning or exam?

Yes, just mention your preference when you call or book online, and our scheduling team will do their best to match you with that hygienist or dentist. We can't always guarantee availability on a specific date, but we'll let you know your options and find the closest fit to your schedule.

How long have most of the staff worked at Havertown Dental Arts?

Many of our team members have been with the practice for several years, which is part of why so many patients recognize familiar faces each time they visit. That kind of continuity matters in dentistry, since it means your care team already knows your history and your preferences without needing to start over.

Where can I learn more about the dentists themselves?

Our dentists' backgrounds, training, and areas of focus are covered on our Doctors page, where you can also find links to individual provider profiles. The team member cards above include everyone else who makes your visit possible, from clinical staff to front desk coordinators.
