Testimonials

Angie Coffey, DAADOM

Office Manager

Dentistry @ University Pointe

AADOM local is a game changer. Being able to meet with other dental managers that are dealing with the same issues as our office is eye opening. I no longer feel like I am on an island. I have made lifelong friendships and have been able to further my education and career.

Elizabeth Schmidt

Office Manager

Savy Smiles Family Dental

“Being part of the Tri-State Dental Office Managers group has been an incredibly valuable experience for me both professionally and personally. This group provides a supportive environment where office managers can collaborate, share real-world solutions, and stay current with the ever-changing landscape of dentistry.

The knowledge and insight I’ve gained—from insurance navigation to team management and operational efficiency—has directly impacted the success of our practice. What I appreciate most is the willingness of everyone to openly share their experiences and help one another grow without hesitation.

It’s rare to find a group that combines education, encouragement, and genuine connection so seamlessly. I’m truly grateful to be a part of such a dedicated and inspiring community.”

Vicki Nixon

Executive Director

Cincinnati Dental Society

I am not always able to attend the Tri-State Dental Managers' events, but when I do, I am incredibly impressed with their topics and speakers. The dental managers who attend are truly dedicated to learning from each other and putting the ideas learned at the events into “action” in their own dental offices. An amazing group of professionals!
