Work Days Monday – Friday

Megan was born and raised in the state of Washington before moving to Arizona 20 years ago. After high school, Megan received her undergraduate degree at Shoreline Community College in Washington before completing the Dental Hygiene program at Phoenix College. For Megan, school was challenging, but she was determined to be successful and soon conquered it!

She originally decided to go into Dental Hygiene due to the career possibilities, but quickly grew to love the relationships she has developed with her patients. Megan has great one-on-one communication skills, and takes great pride in her ability to make patients feel at ease during their dental visits. Throughout her 16 years with Central Valley Dental Care, she has enjoyed the time with her patients in all of their diversity, and her relationships with them have become the most valued aspect of her career.

Megan and her husband of over 20 years have two beautiful children. In addition to her busy mom life and her career as a full-time Dental Hygienist, she enjoys reading, hiking and power lifting. She maintains a positive attitude while finding the perfect balance between family and career.
