ABOUT WENDY
Wendy has been lucky to have the support from Dr Craig Olson, a dentist from Placentia, who she worked with for 14 years. There Wendy saw the need to reach out to those who don't access a dental office.
Wendy's dedication was observed first hand, going out of her way to help patients that have special needs. One day she cleaned a disabled boy's teeth in his mom's car. The patients mom couldn't get him to corporate and come into the office. So she brought her instrument out to him. Now she has the mobile equipment to help her with treatment.
The lack of accessibility to dental care has been a problem for too long for the elderly and children. She hopes her dedication to the community will help.
