Dr. Andrea Robinson, general restorative and cosmetic dentist, is the first to admit that she and her studio are only as good as the team she has by her side. Her team, including office manager Kim Hunter, dental hygienist Sandie Mauk and dental assistant Anny Blevins, is a strong core of women, all friends who work daily to give their clients the best experience they can have while receiving dental treatments.
But at the end of the day, when the last tooth is cleaned, the final restoration is finished, and tomorrow’s appointments are scheduled, where does this team of strong professional women, who have families and lives outside of the studio, go for renewal? They turn to their faith, their families and their bond as friends.
A Foundation of Mutual Respect
Almost six years ago Dr. Andrea Robinson started her solo dental practice in Winston-Salem, NC with the idea that her chosen profession was not just a job or a career, but a calling to be the best dentist she could be, giving her clients the best possible care.“Contributing to a client’s dental health and their smile is very rewarding, so to do my best I believe I have to have a team that shares my vision of making lives better through dental health. For many clients, the treatment that we provide as a team gives them a restored sense of self confidence,” said Robinson.
But getting the right people in place and on board for a good working atmosphere can take many years. Dr. Robinson, however, was blessed from the beginning of her practice, with two team members in place. “From day one, I have been with Dr. Robinson as her dental hygienist,” said Sandie Mauk. “Over the years I have talked to other people who have worked in dental offices and I soon realized that what we have at our studio is rare. We are four women, who are friends and who are team members. We have a mutual respect, both in and outside of the studio. I know that I can call on any of these women, any time of day, for support and help should I or my family ever need it. They have my back and I have theirs. That is hard to find in work places today, but that is what we have.”
