Meet Our Team St. Johns, MI

Patty has been a hygienist for 18 years! Patty says her favorite part of working at Gentner Family Dentistry is making her patients happy and wanting to come back!

Three words that best describe Patty are bubbly, social, and vocal!

I love being a dental assistant because I can make positive impacts in patients’ lives through their smiles. Everyone deserves to smile, and everyone deserves to have a smile they love! Dental assisting fell into my lap in July of 2020 and I haven’t looked back since! Although I have only been at GFD for a short period of time, I chose GFD because of the positive, Christian based work environment. I love coming to work knowing that Dr. Gentner is leading us by her faith every day and it is truly a blessing to be a part of this team! My goal is to continue my education in the dental field and hopefully become a dental hygienist someday.

In my free time I enjoy jewelry making with thrifted items, spending time outside with my fur baby Duke, and staying active in the gym.

Throughout life I’ve had a passion for helping others. I enjoy seeing other people thrive, succeed and be truly happy with themselves. Being at Gentner Family Dentistry has allowed me to make a difference in the lives of our patients. I enjoy seeing the stages of progress that each one of our patients get to experiences throughout their treatment. I am grateful for being part of a team that has one unison goal in mind; to give care and confidence to our community! In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family. Being outdoors is truly a passion of mine. Skiing, kayaking, and camping are a must for my family. We are always excited for our next adventure! My Fiancé has been my best friend for over 20 years and I am lucky enough to get to enjoy the rest of our life together sharing our passion for the outdoors with our son.

I joined the Gentner Family Dentistry team as the Treatment Coordinator in 2021.
I work closely with patients to provide the best treatment plan that works for their individual needs with compassion and honesty. I help coordinate their dental care with challenges such as schedules, health concerns, dental dismay, and financial responsibility, partnering with the patient to use their insurance benefits to receive the dental treatment that they deserve and need.
Together we come up with the best plan personalized for you!
I’m currently expecting my first child, & I’m really looking forward to becoming a mother to our little girl. While I’m not at work in the summer months I love to visit my hometown of Ludington MI. I love taking our two Dogs; Sadie & Brodie for hikes at the Ludington State Park, I also enjoy bowling & spending family days at our pool.
