Meet the Staff

Edia

As a registered dental hygienist, I greatly enjoy conversing with patients and being attentive to their individual needs. I know you will enjoy coming here! Dr. Gooden is an extremely easy-going person. We care about the health of the patients in our care. Our whole team gets along well, and we all share a desire to treat patients with respect in a timely manner. When I’m not at work, I love to travel with my family and help the needy. I am currently a volunteer for Hill Country Mission for Health, Christian Medical & Dental Clinics, and Haven for Hope Refuge Clinic.

Hello, I’m glad to meet you! I am the office manager, and I make sure our practice runs smoothly. Our office is different compared to other dental offices because we have fun with what we do! You will hear people laughing and joking every day. Sometimes people in the waiting room tell me, "They are not supposed to have this much fun at the dental office!" :)  I believe this makes people feel very comfortable here, and I am proud to be part of this team!  At home, I enjoy my free time with family & pets, I love to garden and always planning some type of proyect!

As a registered Dental Assistant I have been working in the field for 3 years. I graduated from UIW in 2020. During my free time, I enjoy traveling with my husband & spending time with family. I'm also very well known for my love of the color pink! I enjoy the dental field because I love being part of patient care and helping to alleviate dental anxiety. Seeing our patients happy and confident in their smile is always my priority. :)
