A Fond Farewell to Longtime Dental Assistant Diana

During your next visit to the office, you will certainly notice that a very key individual of the Roselle Park Dental family is missing. My amazing dental assistant of eight years – Diana – has talked about moving back to her family's native country of Ecuador for as long as I can remember. That day is sadly upon us as Diana, her husband Carlos, and their beautiful children Valentina and David will be moving back to their country in pursuit of a more relaxed life.

The other day I was asked how will you ever replace Diana? Truthfully, she is not someone that is replaceable. She adds so much to our practice, all of our colleague's lives, and our patient's lives. It is such a blessing when an employee loves what they do and has so much passion for their job. That is our Diana.

She has an extremely delicate touch, except with her "moody boss", and a pleasant demeanor that puts all patients at ease when she is next to them. It has been an absolute pleasure to have such a loyal kind soul by my side for all these years.

I am happy for her and her family because they are making their dream a reality, but Diana you will be sorely missed!
