Adriana is so brilliant at her job that you’d think she’d been working in the Dental industry forever, but she only came to dentistry after deciding she’d like a career change.
It turns out the role of Patient Concierge suits Adriana perfectly because she loves helping people feel comfortable and relaxed. She’s also known for giving nervous patients a comforting pat on the shoulder, which our patients love!
Adriana is known to the team as the “reaching nurse” because she’s 6.1ft. Her height makes her really handy for reaching stuff, including spiders and top shelf items. She keeps an eagle eye view on everything happening in the practice and doesn’t miss a trick.
When Adriana isn’t busy patting patients and reaching things, she likes to watch live music or chill out at home playing video games. When it comes to animals, Adriana’s heart is firmly in the world of floof; she adores her three feline scallywags – Ruby, James and Ozzy (check them out at @houseofmeows) – and has a blossoming relationship with our very own Dogtor Bruce.
Adriana grew up in America until the age of 4. She’s been in Gippsland since then and after months of close observation we can’t detect any sign of an American accent. She’s even passed the Vegemite test.
Adriana’s tips for a fun Dental visit: ‘bring me photos of your pets and I’ll show you mine’. Now that’s an offer you can’t refuse.
