Mary
Scheduling Coordinator
I joined our team in 2008. This is my first experience in dentistry, and I could not have asked for a better introduction to the field. Dr. Schick and his staff truly create a professional and easy-going atmosphere that is wonderful and respectful to all. I love greeting our patients and find it rewarding to appoint them in a way that accurately and efficiently works with their schedule. Also, I truly enjoy decorating our office for each season.
I have been blessed with a loving husband John, for thirty years. We have three daughters, two son-in-laws, and five grandchildren. I enjoy spending my free time at the beach, gardening, and relaxing with my family, especially my grandchildren!
Darlene
Financial Manager
I worked in the accounting field prior to joining Dr. Schick's team in 2000. I believe that we have wonderful patients, and I always do my best to accommodate their needs to make their treatments possible. It is my pleasure to research and resolve insurance problems for the patients’ benefit. I submit pre-treatment estimates and treatment plans, and then follow through with sound financial agreements. My goal is to help each patient like a member of our family. Dr. Schick always exhibits integrity and professionalism, as well as kindness, compassion and an awesome sense of humor. We are all a great team and a support system for each other.
I am married to a wonderful man named Tom. I enjoy being outdoors, gardening, reading, and attending concerts and plays. I especially love spending time with my family and friends.
Nikki
Registered Dental Hygienist
I began working with Dr. Schick and our team in 1993 after graduating from Quinsigamond Community College’s Dental Hygiene program in 1992. I love all our patients and really look forward to establishing new relationships as well as seeing familiar faces. The most fulfilling part of my job is seeing our patients’ teeth improve under our guidance and knowing that they understand how to maintain them for years to come. "Teeth for life" is my goal as I do preventive care, take X-rays, educate patients, apply sealants and do conservative periodontal therapy.
I have been married to Phil for fifteen years. We have two children, Nathan and Megan. I am very involved with their school sport activities, and I volunteer as PTO secretary. Outside of work, reading and gardening are my passion. I also play billiards in a competitive league with my husband.
Marie
Registered Dental Hygienist
I started in dentistry as a Certified Dental Assistant and enjoyed the field so much that I went on to become a Registered Dental Hygienist. I have been a part of Dr. Schick's office and Worcester Child Development Head Start since 1988. Over the years, my patients have become like family to me. I enjoy seeing them succeed in maintaining a healthy smile. My desire is to provide a high level of care to my patients, and I continually attend classes to improve my techniques. Applying sealants, providing conservative periodontal therapy, taking X-rays and giving oral hygiene instruction are just some of the care I happily provide.
When not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my granddaughter Kori Marie. I also like to quilt, go on short-term mission trips, and have fun weekends away with my friends.
Tammy
Dental Assistant
I joined our office in 1986, just a year after entering the dental field. It has been enjoyable working with Dr. Schick for the past 25 years. I assist him with all dental procedures, order supplies, and make sure our office is OSHA (occupational safety and health act) compliant. I have a profound respect for his quality dentistry and caring nature. My favorite part of my job is interacting with the patients to make their dental experience more comfortable. It is rewarding to me to see them "show off" their beautiful new smiles.
I am happily married to a fun-loving man named Greg. We have two children, Marc and Lindsey, and one crazy dog named Penney. I love being with family and donating my time to the community.
Debby
Dental Assistant
After 13 years of experience working in a general dental practice in Worcester, Massachusetts, I joined Dr. Schick's team in 2000. My experience allows me to provide excellent assistance during dental procedures, sterilizations, and lab work. I look forward to meeting new people and helping them to achieve their goals for that perfect smile. I have enjoyed working with Dr. Schick for his caring, gentle personality, and the fact that he puts his patients first. It has been a rewarding experience to be a part of this dental team. We are more than co-workers, we have become a family.
I have been married to my husband Jim for 23 years. We have 3 children, Nicole, Derrin and Kasey. I enjoy reading, swimming and most of all, the time spent with family.
