Dr Joshua BUSH
Dentist
"Hello hello, Josh here. I had a slightly windy road to dentistry - I was a Biomedical Engineer for a few years before going to dental school in Minnesota, where I graduated in '22. I visited Tennessee a year later and loved it and moved here soon after my first visit. For a jokester you'd be surprised what a "work hard play hard" mentality I have. I take my work very seriously, keeping up with the latest technology and techniques. And in my freetime I am a huge extrovert, spending most weekends socializing or traveling. I lead an active lifestyle and try to exercise every day. I try to eat pretty healthy too but have a huge sweet tooth (don't tell my dentist)"
Valerie Brooks
Dental Assistant
"I’ve enjoyed being a dental assistant since 1994, at the recommendation of my family dentist. While I’ve continued this career throughout my adult life, I’ve had a few years breaks to have my children, that are now awesome adults!! I love being able to get to know patients on a personal level, while also learning what their dental goals are. Outside of work I enjoy family time, being a social butterfly, beer and wings connoisseur."
Jan ricketts
Hygienist
"I am a Wilson County native and love all things Tennessee, especially nature.
I am a passionate dental hygienist who truly loves my patients—many of whom have become dear friends and feel like family. Outside the office, I am a Master Gardener who finds joy in nurturing flowers and God’s creation. I enjoy volunteering with the Good News Club and gospel face-painting, spending precious time with my grandchildren, and traveling whenever I can. I am grateful to be part of The Glade Church."
Charlotte Phillips
Insurance Coordinator
"I started my professional career as a medical and dental insurance specialist. I then took my expertise in the insurance industry into the dental field, bringing extensive knowledge across every aspect of the front office from scheduling to patient relations and office management for the past 32 years. I'm also a wife, mother, and grandmother to 6 amazing grandchildren and 2 awesome great-grandchildren. I'm not all work and no play. I love to travel, whether it’s cruising or a girls trip, I'm always ready, especially if good food and great wine are involved."
Nicole Kirchner
Marketing Director
"I’m passionate about creativity, people, travel, and health & wellness. With experience in medical office administration, social media management, and hospitality, I bring a patient-focused and relationship-driven approach to marketing. I’m currently finishing up my Marketing degree at Middle Tennessee State University. Outside of work, you’ll most likely find me at the gym or soaking up the sunshine. I’m also a proud follower of Jesus! :)"
Rebecca Lineberry
Hygienist
"I love serving the community where I was raised and caring for generations of families. When I'm not at work, I'm either chasing chickens, my husband or my two kids. I love Jesus, flowers, baby animals and Mahjong!"
Stacey MAxwell
Treatment Coordinator
"I'm a proud mom, a veteran’s wife, and I've been in dentistry since 1996. I started my career as a dental assistant, and after many years chair-side, I decided to “retire” to the front office. Whether it’s insurance, treatment plans, or scheduling, I've got your back!"
