Denise Gallegos
Registered Dental Assistant
I have been working with the company since 2019. During my free time I like to recharge my batteries and catch up on sleep. I would say I’m better at assisting Dr. Kuipers than talking about myself.

Paulina Fuenes
Registered Dental Assistant
Hi, my name is Paulina. I am a dental assistant here at North Garland Dental & Orthodontics. I am shy and soft spoken. I am a coffee addict. I enjoy all things coffee, whenever I get the opportunity I like visiting local coffee shops. On my days off I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. Also on a rare occasion I enjoy visiting the gym. I am happy to be part of the NGDO team, where everyone works together to provide our patients with the best service and experience possible.

Hayden Fogas
Business Assistant
Hi! My name is Hayden and I’ve been working with Dr Kuipers since 2017. I love to learn new things, and I have learned so much since I started working here. I like to crochet, read, and cuddle with my cat. My favorite Disney princess is Belle because she loves books, she’s a little bit of a rebel, and she cares about people for what’s on the inside. I love to laugh and am always down for a good practical joke. In my free time, you can probably find me rescuing stray animals or listening to true crime podcasts. I look forward to seeing you soon in our office, because like they say at Olive Garden, “when you’re here, you’re family!”

Natalie Kee
Business Assistant
My name is Natalie.You will find me at the front desk with a warm greeting when you arrive, answering your questions and calls. I would describe myself as humble, team player and dependable. What has made me who I am today is my family and God.

Sandra Galicia
Business Assistant
Hello my name is Sandra and I’m part of the front desk team. I enjoy my job and take pride in helping others with their dental health. When I’m not at work you can find me hanging out with my family and taking mini road trips, which I have the best playlist for. I have enjoyed working here for the past 3 years and look forward to many more!
