Mindy

Mindy - Salt Lake Dental Care TeamMindy has been working in the dental field for about 12 years, 8 of those years as a dental hygienist and 5 of those years she’s been working for Dr. Blackwood, DDS. She tracked him down after seeing the work he’d done at a previous office where she worked and he had previously worked. It was AWESOME…so she Googled him, called him up and asked for a job. He’s a sucker and hired her and she has loved working here ever since. The patients are the best in the world!!

Aside from work, Mindy loves her little family and gets excited to come home to them after working all day. She and her husband Jake have been married just over 5 years.
