Lorissa – Office Manager
I have been with the dental office since October 2014. I went to Polaris Career Center for my assisting certification. I started out as an assistant and wanted to become more involved in personal care for patients so I became the office manager.
Francesca – Dental Hygienist
I have been with the dental office since 2003. I began as an assistant and went to school to become a hygienist and I’m very passionate about my job. I have 3 children, two boys and a girl. We also have three dogs.
Oksana – Dental Hygienist
Oksana moved to the U.S. from Belarus when she was five years old. In 2005, she graduated from Cuyahoga Community College with a degree in dental hygiene. She then went on to complete a bachelor’s in biology in 2009. Oksana enjoys the field she works in and hopes to become a dentist in the future.
Julie – Front Desk
Julie has been at the front desk of Dr. Shtarkman's dental office since the dental office began in 2006 but has a total of 17 years’ experience in the dental field. Prior to working in dentistry, Julie had experience in sales and customer service working for such companies as the United States Steel Corporation and Fieldcrest Towels and Linens. In her words, the best part about working in the dental field is building relationships with the patients, many of whom have become friends, and knowing that no two days will be the same. Julie has been married for 37 years and has two daughters, both of whom, along with their husbands, live and work in the Cleveland area. After work, Julie enjoys power walking, gardening, reading and spending time with family and friends.
