Tricia - Treatment Coordinator
As Dr. Meharg’s treatment coordinator, I have the privilege of introducing our new patients to our practice. At the first visit I will spend time getting to know you and your orthodontic needs. After a full evaluation by Dr. Meharg, I will answer any questions you may have regarding the treatment recommendation and will review the financial plans available to best meet your needs.
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family and friends.
Jackie - Scheduling Coordinator
I was raised in Lakeland. Now, I reside in Tully with my husband, Tyler, and our four beautiful daughters, three of which received treatment through Dr. Meharg’s care. I was fortunate enough to be given the opportunity of joining Dr. Meharg’s team as the scheduling coordinator. I come to this position with several years of experience as a medical secretary at St. Joseph’s Hospital. I am most likely the first person you will see when coming to Dr. Meharg’s office.
When I am not at the office, I enjoy time with my family, walking, relaxing on our front porch watching the hummingbirds, and when the girls have their way, we enjoy shopping together.
Deb - Financial Coordinator
I joined Dr. Meharg’s team in February 2004. My past experience at an insurance company has been very helpful in assisting patients with their insurance questions. I live with my husband and our son. We share our home with our 8-year-old Catahoula Leopard dog named Marley.
My favorite TV show is “Tyler's Ultimate” on the Food Network. I enjoy doing anything that involves my family, especially cooking with my son.
Christine - Orthodontic Assistant
I have been with Dr. Meharg since January 2002. I am a graduate of Monroe Community College where I received my Dental Assisting Certificate. I am a licensed Certified Dental Assistant. I love the orthodontic field and look forward to each day with our current patients, as well as meeting all the new ones.
I have a 13-year-old daughter, Caitlyn, who is my pride and joy. When we are not doing our girlie girl things, I love to spend time at the gym. A few of my favorite things are cheesecake and the color pink. Our pets’ names are Oreo and Dani Girl.
Rita - Dental Hygienist
I was born and raised in Syracuse. I am a 1967 graduate of OCC’s School of Dental Hygiene and have worked in the orthodontic field for 39 years. For two years, I was also on the clinical staff at OCC, teaching future hygienists the craft I have loved for so many years.
My husband, Tom, and I reside in Liverpool and have a son, Tom, who resides in Connecticut with his wife, Nicole. I have three fabulous grandchildren. In our spare time, we enjoy traveling, playing golf and attending sporting events. Most of all, we enjoy spending time with our family and friends.
Sherri - Clinical Assistant
I was thrilled to be chosen by Dr. Meharg as an orthodontic assistant. It's such an exciting field, and the office has a great team. I look forward to being a part of it all.
I have lived in the Syracuse area all my life. Currently, my husband, Rich, and I live in Baldwinsville with our brood - two beautiful daughters, a dog, three cats and a fish. I spend most days working around the house and yard when I am not driving the girls to activities or running. My favorite days are spent reading and relaxing with a nice glass of wine.
Dick - Laboratory Technician
I am a native of Syracuse and spent four years as a dental technician in the United States Air Force. I gained my experience in orthodontics working for an orthodontist for two years. After leaving the Air Force, I worked as a motion picture projectionist before returning to the orthodontic field, approximately 27 years ago. I have been with Dr. Meharg for 10 years.
In my spare time, I enjoy golfing and am an avid sports fan. My favorite TV show is “Desperate Housewives.”
Corinne
As Dr. Meharg’s wife, I’ve been on his team since the beginning, before there was orthodontics, at least for us. Sometimes, you might hear my voice as the fill-in scheduling coordinator or financial coordinator. I have done many of the quilts in the office, and I make quilts and teach others to make them when I have some spare time. Michael and I love to travel and visit our adult children in Altamont, New York and Burlington, Vermont.
