Sherri
Orthodontic Assistant
Hi, and welcome to our practice! I work here as one of our assistants, and my duties include taking X-rays, assisting Dr. Kowalczyk, and ordering supplies when needed. I’ve worked in the field for more than 40 years, and it’s been a pleasure to have spent the past 25 with this amazing team. The best part of my day is seeing our patients’ transformations from beginning to end with braces. Their smiles bring me so much joy!
Fran
Treatment Coordinator
As a treatment coordinator, I work with current and prospective patients to schedule appointments and walk them through the treatment process. My favorite part of my job is getting to know our patients and their families, and of course, seeing everyone’s beautiful smiles! Our team is kind, knowledgeable, and works hard every day to make sure patients receive the best care possible.
Outside of work, I have three grown children and a house full of pets! I love gardening and can't wait for warm weather each year. When it's cold out, you'll usually find me at home with a good book or movie.
Laura
Senior Orthodontic Assistant
Hello! I handle clinical lab work, assist Dr. K with all dental procedures and sterilization, and help with new patient exams. Many of my family members work in the dental field, and I knew I wanted to be an orthodontic assistant when I was just seven years old! A lot of our younger patients come in nervous, and some even deal with dental anxiety. I love being able to calm them down and show them that orthodontic treatment can actually be enjoyable!
My free time is spent busy at home with my kids: Tony, Khloé, and my baby, Uriel. I enjoy going on walks with my rescue dog, a Dalmatian named Bella Paris!

Orthodontic Assistant
Hi! I joined the practice in 2026, and I help provide quality orthodontic care by assisting with procedures and patient appointments. There’s nothing better than seeing the positive impact treatment has on our patients. I also really appreciate being able to learn from Dr. K’s experience, and I value the teamwork and communication that keep our office running smoothly.
When I’m not at work, I enjoy spending time outdoors, especially going on walks with my dog and exploring nature.

Hi! I've been part of Kowalczyk Orthodontics since 2024. The best part of being an orthodontic assistant is watching patients' smiles transform over time. I love working with people and being part of a team that helps create healthy, confident smiles every day.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, shopping, and going to the gym.

Orthodontic Assistant
I graduated from Shandong Li Ming College in China with a major in Stomatology, followed by orthodontic training at the School of Stomatology - Wuhan University. I love to see a patient’s personality and self-confidence grow as their teeth shift and their smile changes. Our patients are excited to get a new smile, and we’re excited right along with them!
My husband and I have two kids, one girl and one boy. When we have free time, we love to try delicious food from all over the world, as well as outdoor activities, like hiking and camping.
