Administration
Patty
I moved to Austin in my early 20's and continued my dental career path in both the business office and clinical areas. Because I am a people person and I like to talk, a lot, the business office made perfect sense!!
I live in Round Rock with my three boys, Corey 3, Jeremy 6, and Wesley 16 and our sweet
little Shitzu, Scooter. Having 3 boys means I am always moving when I am
not at the office. We fill our days with swimming, soccer and just playing. I have been with Dr. Meek and Dr. Tasch now for over 6 years and I consider this office my second home. I hope I can help you when you come in and please make sure to let me know if there is any way I can make your visit better.
