Dawn Marie
As the office manager, the best part of my job is watching the excitement of starting braces and the joy of seeing our patients' new smiles. I love meeting them at the first appointment and seeing them all the way through to their final smiles. Getting to know our patients and helping them feel comfortable with treatment is the best!
I live in Frisco with my hubby, three kiddos, and our dog Gunner. My family and I moved to Texas a few years ago and have loved every minute of it! We love to spend time together as a family, go to concerts and rodeos, and volunteer and help at our kids’ schools.
Amy
As a scheduling coordinator and patient records coordinator, I am responsible for making sure our patients have a great experience from scheduling appointments to taking their pictures and X-rays. I love to see our patients smile after their braces come off! It’s amazing what a difference orthodontics makes in their lives. It feels great to know that we’ve helped our patients feel comfortable to smile more. Everyone here, from our doctors to the staff, loves our patients and really cares about how they feel.
In my spare time, I love spending time with my husband Noah, daughter Kenzie, and son Landon. We enjoy watching movies, going to Stars games, and going to our family’s lake house to go kayaking and stand-up paddle boarding!

I live in Wylie with my husband and best friend Brandon. We have four beautiful children, Maddie, Connor, Dakotah, and Hunter, and a grandbaby, Matthew. We have two dogs, Harley and Espn. We spend majority of our time at the baseball fields, basketball games, and football games. When we aren’t at ball games, Brandon and I enjoy going to Canton and driving around East Texas.

I have a German shepherd/great Pyrenees dog who is my whole world. We enjoy going on runs and snuggling on the couch. I love iced coffee, building Legos with my boyfriend, and reading anything by Colleen Hoover. My favorite thing to do is go back home to Lubbock to visit my family!

Mikayla
Welcome to Gandy Orthodontics! I’m Mikayla, a treatment coordinator. I am the first to see new patients, so I help to explain the differences in braces or clear aligners to patients and go over their specific treatment plan that will accommodate their wants and needs. Of course, watching their smiles slowly grow as they continue treatment and start to love their smile more and more is an awesome feeling. We’re a family here, and really do what it takes for our patients to enjoy the process of straightening teeth.
Outside of enjoying my family here at Gandy Orthodontics, I love to play indoor and sand volleyball. I have developed some awesome friendships through sports over the years and join many leagues throughout the year playing. I also love to travel a lot and explore new places and foods.
