Karla

Front Office Administrator

My role as a team member includes scheduling our patients’ appointments, answering phone calls, setting up contracts, and corresponding with insurance providers. I view each patient as a friend I haven’t met yet, so getting to know them is fun and interesting. I enjoy the opportunity to be a bright spot in someone’s day by treating them well and providing them with genuine quality care.

Spending time with family and friends is my absolute favorite pastime, no matter the activity! My husband Greg and I have adult children, beautiful grandkids, and snuggly grand “fur” babies. We love traveling, playing games, sports, and movies. I am a Christ follower and strive to reflect Jesus’ love in all I do.

 

Jerri

Front Office Administrator

I graduated from Alamance Community College in 1986 in the Dental Assisting program and love what I do. I have worked in general dentistry and orthodontic offices but truly love ortho and seeing smiles transformed. I have worked the last 11 years doing front office duties such as scheduling and financials and have been with Lowe Orthodontics for almost two years now.

I have been married to my best friend for 34 years. We have two grown children and two grandsons that bring so much joy to our family. We love spending time outside and spoiling our grands every chance we get!

 

Caroline

Orthodontic Assistant

I graduated from ACC’s dental assisting program as a DA II in 2011. I previously worked in two other orthodontic offices, but my long-term goal was always to work for Dr. Lowe! I got my wish in 2016! I work hands on with patients and help Dr. Lowe chairside to create beautiful smiles, and I also make the retainers that help keep those smiles straight. I have the pleasure of interacting with and getting to know each individual patient, seeing his or her smile change for the better over time. It’s a truly rewarding experience.

I’m married to my husband Jeremy. We have two beautiful daughters, Audrey and Charli. We enjoy spending time together with both of our families and spending time at the beach!

 

Santanna

Orthodontic Assistant

I earned my Dental Assistant II certification at Alamance Community College in 2010 and joined Dr. Lowe’s team in 2017. My job allows me to work directly with patients, providing them with high quality care from the moment their braces are put on to when they’re taken off. Our patients are all interesting people, and I enjoy getting to know a little more about them at each visit.

I am married to my husband David, and we have two wonderful children, Mayson and Maddox. We also have two dogs, Ruger and Kenzie. We enjoy going to Oak Island and enjoying all of our favorite spots there. When we are home, we enjoy hanging out with our family and friends and watching the Hurricanes.

 

Amber

Orthodontic Assistant

I graduated from Alamance Community College in 2011 with a diploma in dental assisting. Since then, I have worked in pediatrics and orthodontics, finding my home here at Lowe Orthodontics in 2019. While assisting Dr. Lowe, I get to see our patients’ smiles change for the better and the amazing transformations that take place! I enjoy building relationships with patients over the span of orthodontic treatment, celebrating their new smiles with them at the end.

I’m married to my husband, Matthew, and together we have two beautiful children, Ellison and Isley. Our kids keep us busy, but when not chasing them around, we enjoy traveling, trying new things, and spending time with our friends, family, and church family.

 

Kelli

Orthodontic Assistant

I graduated from ACC’s dental assisting program in 2011 and have been in orthodontics ever since. I was fortunate enough to join Dr. Lowe and the team in 2020. I love building relationships with our patients and seeing the transformation with their smiles! I also really enjoy making the retainers that help maintain all those beautiful smiles!

I’m married to my husband, Tyler, and we have two amazing boys, Sawyer and Tucker. With two young boys we are always busy and on the go! Oh, I can’t forget our beagle, Moose Roger!

 

Christy

Orthodontic Assistant

I graduated from ACC’s dental assisting program as a DA II in 2011. I previously worked as a pediatric dental assistant for 10 years. I enjoy working with our younger patients to help them feel comfortable and have a great experience at our office.

I married my loving husband, Pete, in 2007, and we recently celebrated 20 years together! We have an 11-year-old son, Skylar, who loves Minecraft and STEAM projects. We are animal lovers with three sweet pups, Rainey, Puddles, and Cloudy. I have three brothers and two sisters, and I enjoy spending time with my nieces and nephews on the weekends. In my spare time I enjoy jewelry-making and creating mosaics.

 

Wally

Part Time Therapy Dog/Patient Encourager

Dr. Lowe is not only my boss but he is also my dad! I usually come to work one day per week. My main job is to make all of our patients smile and I also help to calm down little kids (and big kids too) who might be nervous about getting braces. In my spare time, I like to sleep and eat (a lot) and play with my mom and dad and all my friends. My favorite things to do are swimming at the lake and fetching tennis balls on the beach. Did I mention that I also like to eat?

 

Jasper

Sploot Officer/Floor Sniffer/Softest Boy

My job is very important. I do routine inspections of the premises to demonstrate proper splooting form, ensure that the floor is appropriately sniffed, and receive pets from patients. My dad, Dr. Ben, says I am very good at these things. You may get to meet me if my mom brings me in to visit, or I may tag along to help my dad see emergency patients after-hours! My hobbies include getting the zoomies, snuggling with my family, and playing with my sister Millie, a very sassy cat. I want her to come visit patients too, but she prefers to stay at home. She’s weird like that.
