Taking Care Of Business
MARSH ORTHODONTICS
“Practicing orthodontics is one of the cornerstones in my life. It has af- forded me the opportunity to help other people while doing something that I enjoy. I am deeply honored to practice orthodontics and to gain the trust and respect of so many people. It has certainly been one of the great blessings in my life.
”I am most passionate about im- proving the lives of others through the work that I do — giving great, healthy smiles. I know that a beauti- ful smile boosts self-esteem and con- fidence and can lead to a better quality of life. I have seen the life-al- tering effect dentistry has on people and I am honored to be able to con- tribute to their success.
“I enjoy meeting new people and helping them achieve their goal of a beautiful smile. As a result, I help them reach goals in other areas of their lives. It gives me a great deal of satisfaction to know that I am using my talents in a positive manner that affects so many people. Every person is unique and has a different combi- nation of needs, desires, and goals. I relish the opportunity to be able to assist in any way I can.”
