Teresa

Teresa, PATIENT COORDINATOR

As the Patient Coordinator, I work "behind the scenes," both researching and helping you maximize your dental insurance benefits. I am fortunate to be a part of a wonderful team that works hard to make sure your experience is a great one!

I have been working in the dental field for almost 10 years, starting my career in endodontics. I enjoy meeting our patients and getting to know each of you. It is important to me that our patients leave our office with the best care possible.

I am a "local," born and raised in Norfolk. I still live in Norfolk with my 2 amazing teenage boys that are my world! Outside of the office, you will probably find me on the baseball field!

Lani

Lani, CDA-CERTIFIED DENTAL ASSISTANT

I love my job! As an assistant, I enjoy providing patients with answers about their dental health and making them feel at ease. It makes me happy when patients feel better about themselves. I help Drs. Tanya Brown and Matthew Cawley and our team make sure your visits are pleasant and run smoothly. In my almost 20 years in dentistry, I have finally found a home & a top-notch professional team. I am a native of the Philippines and I have been in Hampton Roads for more than 23 years. Outside of work, I enjoy ballroom dancing, which I am actively involved in. Who knows, you might see me on “Dancing with the Stars” one day! My other hobbies include sewing, crafting, knitting, shopping of course, and spending time with my family.

Brittany

Brittany, DENTAL ASSISTANT

I have been a Dental Assistant for 6 years. I earned my RDA (Registered Dental Assistant) License while attending Ocean Lakes High School at the Virginia Beach Technical and Career Education Center in 2014. I first started working in Endodontics and I absolutely loved it. I wanted to learn more in the dental field and over time moved to working in General Dentistry. I enjoy helping patients feel comfortable and educating them about the importance of their teeth and overall health. I love being part of the TCCRD team and helping everyone in the team.

When I am not working, I am at home with my 2-year-old son. My son Bradley and I spend a lot of our time cooking in the kitchen together. When we are not in the kitchen, we like to enjoy some other hobbies like swimming, hiking, and traveling.
