Shawn-Dental Assistant
Shawn discovered her love for dentistry in high school. She was involved in a dental co-op program and was surprised by how rewarding she found it. That experience was her first step in a successful dental career. After high school, she took dental assisting courses in college, as well as post graduate courses at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies. The most satisfying part of her job is knowing she is a part of changing someone’s life by giving them a new smile. She has been with our office for 28 years. In her spare time, Shawn loves playing tennis, swimming, and reading.
Martha-Dental Hygienist
Martha’s very first job was as an after school dental assistant in Dr. Hadgis’ office. She stayed in this position for several years while she obtained her bachelor’s degree at Wayne State University. She worked in the business world for a few years, but really missed the dental environment. She later entered the University of Detroit where she received a bachelor of science with a certificate in dental hygiene. Her favorite part of her job is the personal interaction with the patients. She loves getting to know them and helping improve their dental health.
In her free time, she loves taking long walks, shopping online, and watching movies. Martha and her husband have been married since 1995, and have a miniature schnauzer named Kirby.

She’s worked as a hygienist since 1999 and has been with our office since 2017. She makes it a personal goal to put patients at ease in the dental chair while improving their oral health.
She loves the Grosse Pointe area, especially the architecture of the homes and the sunrises on Lake St. Clair. Lisa married in 1999 and is the mother of 3 children. She strives to be the best mom she can. When she’s not working, she and her family love trying new restaurants and traveling to new places.
