Howard Dental Center Team

Our team is a small group of people who come from different backgrounds with diverse training and experiences allied toward a common goal.  We draw from each other’s strengths and support each other with a synergistic quality that grows stronger the longer that we work together.

Linda

Patient Care Coordinator

Being part of the team of Howard Dental Center has bees such a great opportunity for me, supporting the same values, our patients, health and friendships. I’ve been in the dental field for many years and have experience as a dental assistant and front office manager and have loved the many years of getting to know so many great people.

When I’m not at work, I enjoy time with family: My husband (Mike), our two daughters (Sammi and Cali) and our dog (Holly) and cat (Norman).

Morgan

Dental Assistant

Hi, my name is Morgan. I have been a dental assistant a little over a year. I am from Green Bay, where I attended NWTC and graduated May of 2016. Being a dental assistant has always been a dream of mine and I am extremely grateful to be working with Dr. Wackwitz and his staff. As a dental assistant, it is my goal to make every patient have a wonderful dental experience and also to grow and form new relationships with each and every patient. I feel successful knowing that my patient is having a good experience and knowing that they will leave with a happy, healthy, and beautiful smile:)

April

Hygienist

At a very young age, I realized the impact that a mindful and compassionate dental care team can have. Being a “frequent flyer” as a child in the dental chair, my experiences easily could have turned into negative ones. Instead, my experiences were pleasant and inspired me to pursue a career in the dental field. I am delighted to be part of Howard Dental Center’s team and support our primary goal: each and every one of our patients feeling as if they were truly cared for. My dental career began in 2000 and I graduated from Northeast Wisconsin Technical College in 2003. I have gained diverse experience in family and pediatric dentistry, as well as oral surgery. While patients are in my care, my goal is for each individual to feel respected, safe and comfortable. With overall health and dental health being so interconnected, much attention is paid to caring for the wellness of the entire individual, not just limiting the focus to the gums and teeth.

Outside of the dental office, I enjoy being outdoors with my husband and son. We love downhill skiing, camping, hiking and gardening. I am also a wholesome food enthusiast that stays busy in the kitchen with cooking, canning and fermenting. Since 2015, I have been a certified yoga instructor, specializing in gentle and therapeutic yoga.

Kathy

Hygienist

I graduated from NWTC with an associate degree in Dental Hygiene in 2000. Prior to that, I was a dental assistant for many years. At Howard Dental Center, I enjoy working with like-minded professionals who value a holistic approach to dentistry.

When I am not at work I prefer to be outdoors spending time with my husband and Great Pyrenees Rescue dog.
