Michele Orthodontic Assistant / Lab Technician

Michele brings over 25 years of experience to our practice, so we know we can always rely on her to provide excellent care for our patients. She loves getting to work with our excellent team and meet new people every day. She, like our other assistants, will help provide treatment at your follow-up appointments, and she can answer any questions you might have.

Originally from Baldwin, Michele likes to spend her off time with her husband watching their two children at sporting events.

Lorrie Financial Coordinator

If you have any billing or insurance questions, Lorrie is always the person to ask. She loves helping people, and she’ll make sure you know everything about the cost of your care. She brings over 20 years of experience to our practice in addition to a certification in medical administration, so you can trust that she’ll always have the answers you need!

When she’s not at work, Lorrie enjoys walking, exercising, and spending time with her fiancé, two teenage daughters, and her adorable morkie (a Maltese/Yorkie mix), Niko.

Anne Marie Treatment Coordinator

When you come in for your first visit with us, you may be lucky enough to meet Anne Marie. She’ll assist with your initial consultation by taking a few x-rays, and she’ll also help schedule any future appointments you might need. She has spent her entire 7-year career at Smiles by Palmer because she loves working with Dr. Palmer and talking with patients every day.

In her free time, Anne Marie and her family like to stay active by biking, skiing, walking, sailing, camping, and playing tennis.
