Our Own News!!!

May 12, 2009

We so often post dental-related news that sometimes we overlook all of the excitement going on in our own lives. So, I’m going to take some time to share a little of our own special news!

sammyKatie, one of our dental assistants, has a new addition to her family. Her and her husband Brian adopted 1 year old Sammy, a Beagle-Jack Russel Terrier mix from the Wisconsin Humane Society. They are so excited to have her as part of their lives! We were lucky enough to meet her last Friday when Katie brought her to the office. She is such a sweet and loving little puppy!

 Cheryl and her husband Joe also have some very exciting news to share. They are expecting their first child together and found out today that it’s a boy! Cheryl is almost halfway through her pregnancy and has been busy here at work and also at home, getting ready for the baby to arrive. We can’t wait to meet him!

Nikki (that’s me!) and her husband Nick put in an offer on their first house last month and it was approved! It’s a foreclosure in Pewaukee so they are in for quite a bit of work but excited to “build” their dream  home together. Although to be real honest, Nikki is dreading long nights after work that she’ll be spending peeling down wallpaper and gutting and redoing the kitchen before they move in!

And finally, Kathleen is leaving soon to go visit her daughter in France where she is currently studying abroad right outside of Paris. How exciting! Among their plans to visit Paris and the French countryside, they also intend on flying to Rome to see the Colosseum and as many other places as they can get to during the time they are there.

Keep checking back for more of our exciting news. Maybe Kathleen will even share some pictures from her trip that we can post!

thankyouOne of our AWESOME patients left us this amazingly sweet and sincere review on our Demandforce website today!

“I was truly blessed from the moment I stepped in Kathyrn was absolutely beyond exceptional felt like I was among family. THe hygienist and dentist were also very warming. I told my husband and he will be making an appointment as well as myself. We move around quite frequently due to his job and if offices like this were abundant we wouldn’t skip cleanings. You are a first class place.”

WOW! THANK YOU SO MUCH! You are truly the reason why we love our jobs so much. We hope to build a long-lasting relationship with you and all of your family!

E-mail and Text Message Reminders!

May 1, 2009

Filed under: News — elmbrookfamilydental @ 11:18 pm

If you’ve had an appointment with us recently, you may have received an e-mail or text message to remind you of the day and time you are scheduled to be seen. We recently signed up with a program that will send an e-mail or text message to you directly. The response we get from most patients is great! We are hoping it is a quick and convenient way for you to confirm your appointment time without ever picking up the phone. All you have to do is click the “CONFIRM” button and we immediately receive notification that you will be at your appointment. For those patients who prefer a phone call instead, you have the option to “Opt out” of this reminder system. If you have questions about how this works, or would like to share an e-mail address with us, feel free to call us any time! As a courtesy, we also send a follow up message that gives patients the option to review the services received during the time spent here at the office. Good or bad, we read and consider all comments or suggestions! You may even submit them anonymously! Click : here to see what patients are saying!

**Please note: all appointment changes or cancellations must still be made over the phone

Swine Flu

Filed under: News — elmbrookfamilydental @ 4:12 am

handwashWorried about the Swine Flu? Rest assured that we are doing our best to protect our patients during office visits. Our operatories are draped with plastic barriers that are changed between each patient, and all surfaces are wiped clean with an antimicrobial agent. In our reception and waiting areas we are taking extra time to wipe our chairs, door handles, childrens toys and counter tops down as well. Antibacterial hand spray is out for patients that wish to use it. At this point, no confirmed cases of the swine flu have been reported in the state of Wisconsin. There are however 5 probable cases at this time. The Center for Disease Control is currently working on a firm diagnoses for these people. Physicians and Health officials say the best things you can do are: wash your hands often, cover your mouth while coughing or sneezing and stay home from work or school if you are displaying signs of flu. There is no reason to be alarmed, but  be sure to take proper precautions and stay educated as the situation changes. For a reliable source of  local information, click: www.pandemic.wi.gov
