A lot can happen in six months (semi-annual dental cleaning), such as meeting a new staff member! I think Cindy (sp.) is Dr. Athari's dental hygienist, and she's pretty cool. She was friendly and connected with me right from the beginning! It's all about finding common ground to strike a good conversation. LOL. Just thinking about how she'd let me respond to her comments between stints of cleaning my teeth is humorous.
No worries... The same front desk staff is still there, and just as friendly. It's just nice to see Dr. Athari have an additional person to help him out, but he's still the same guy that'll be there for you. In fact, he checked my teeth and went over the updated x-rays after Cindy was done with me.
Can't wait to see what other positive developments happens in another six months!
