Karen Barker, Registered Dental Assistant
Karen and her husband Darrell have lived in the Tomball area for 20 years. They have three lovely daughters ages 21, 19, and 13. Karen has been a stay-at-home mom until the "field of dentistry" enticed her to continue her education. In her free time she loves gardening. She received her Registered Dental Assistant certificate in 2006 from The Texas School of Business. We feel exceptionally lucky to add her to our team to enhance our practices warm and relaxed atmosphere. |

Kim Coulter, Office Manager
When she's not at Dr. Hammond's front desk, Kim is likely to be riding around town on the back of her husband's motorcycle. In the office, Kim manages insurance claims, makes appointments, and greets patients when they arrive. She also occasionally leaves the desk to work with Dr. Hammond as a registered dental assistant. |

Laura Lorenz, Hygienist
Ask Laura's patients, and they will tell you that her gentle touch is her best quality. Laura received her diploma in dental hygiene from Lamar University in 1987 and has been practicing dental hygiene since.
She cares for patients with such warmth and competence that they quickly learn her name, and she theirs. |

Joy Westgard, Hygienist
Although Joy's two children make her life full, she can't bring herself to retire. She has worked as a dental hygienist since graduating from North Dakota State School of Science in 1973. Although she works only part time at Dr. Hammond's office, her many years of experience have enabled her to make a full-time impact on patient care. |
