I am a resident of Plum Borough and have two children, Laura and Joseph. I have worked in the dental field since the age of 19 - both assisting and at the front desk. Now that I have raised my family, I have resumed my office coordinating skills here in Oakland. I am the Office Coordinator/Manager and I look forward to meeting all of you and making your next visit to our office a warm and welcomed experience.

For the past 5 years, I have juggled my time between working in the dental field and attending the University of Pittsburgh, where I plan on attending Pharmacy School in the fall of 2005. I have been a part of the office team here at Miller, Werrin and Gruendel since October 2003, and see the compassion and teamwork that instills patient loyalty, making this office the best in the area. I am proud to be a part of this team and look forward to meeting you if I have not already.

My name is Tina Fisher and I am a full time student at the University of Pittsburgh, working towards a degree in Business Finance. I am also a part-time employee at Peter's Pub in Oakland.

My name is Charles Winter. I have been employed by Dr. Miller for the last 40 years. I do all phases of dental lab work. My specialty is gold and composite crowns, inlays and onlays. We have a full service and up to date in house laboratory. Whenever you are in the office, stop in our lab and say "Hi!" We will be happy to meet you and answer any of your questions.

I am a Master Dental Technician with 20 years experience in all phases of fixed prosthetics.

I am a recent addition to the laboratory staff at Miller, Werrin and Gruendel. I was fortunate to graduate at the top of my class in dental careers at A.W. Beattie Technical School. I have also attended courses at the Dentsply Trubyte Education facility for Removable Prosthodontics. I am extremely concerned with patient satisfaction and making sure that our patients can walk away excited about sharing their new smile with the world.

I am married and have two boys - Andrew, 8 and Austin, 4. I just got the little girl everyone has wanted me to try for. Her name is Maggie and she is a German short hair pointer! I live in Freeport. I enjoy golfing and spending time with the boys. I have been with this office for 15 years and look forward to many more.

I graduated from Derry Area High School in 1994, the University of Pittsburgh in 1996 with a Dental Hygiene Certificate, and from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh in 2000 majoring in Computer Animation. I reside in Derry Township, have 4 dogs, Michael, Bubby, Trent & Trisha and plan to marry my fiance Nathan Doherty. Currently I work full time in this office and freelance as a professional artist.

I've been a dental hygienist with this office for 15 years on a part time basis. I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 1981 with a hygiene license and a Bachelors Degree in Health Professions. I have always enjoyed working with my hands and helping people to take better care of themselves and their teeth. My husband Chris and I have 3 sons, Markus, Miles and Mason, ages 13 1/2 - 9. In my spare time I love to run, watch my kids play baseball, basketball & swim. We love to entertain at our home, as I also love to cook and garden.

I have worked 26 1/2 years for Dr.'s Miller, Werrin, & Gruendel. Prior to moving to Pittsburgh, I practiced in New York City. As you can see, I still love dental hygiene.

I have worked for this office for 34 years. I'm looking forward to the next 34 years.
