I assist Dr. O'Leary by helping complete patient treatment, and educate our patients on their treatment. I love getting to know our patients and working with our wonderful team. We always have so much fun in our office. Everyone that works here loves to laugh! Dr. O’Leary is a wonderful person and a great orthodontist. They care for their patients, and staff, like family.

My husband Paul and I have three children, Caroline, Katy, and Paul-Joseph, and two dogs named Bud and Moose. When I’m not in the office, I enjoy playing tennis, horseback riding, and being a mom.

Amy

Treatment Coordinator

Hi everyone, my name is Amy! I guide new patients in their consultation process. Through education and care, patients are able to make the best decision for themselves and their loved ones. Our purpose here is to make people feel comfortable and trust us to work with them through their orthodontic journey to a new and beautiful smile!

What I value most about working at O’Leary Orthodontics is meeting new people and watching their confidence bloom as their smiles transform. In my spare time, I enjoy all things Harry Potter, creating memories with my family, and going to the beach!

Kim

Certified Orthodontic Technician

I assist Dr. O'Leary with all of your orthodontic needs. I help to place braces on your teeth, change wires and colored ties, and remove your braces when it's time to unveil your beautiful new smile. I truly love doing what I do because I get to follow my patients' treatment from start to finish. It makes me so happy to know that I helped to make a difference in your life by straightening your smile! Our team is known for our compassion and family-like bond. I truly enjoy coming to work every day.

My Husband David and I have 2 beautiful girls Amelia & Ellison. We also have 2 dogs named Nala and Lilly. In my free time, I enjoy spending time by my pool, playing with my animals, and cooking.

I take great pride in knowing I’m assisting in making your smile the best it can be! I love seeing the transition from start to finish and how much it can impact the confidence of the patients. I also find it really rewarding to get to know the patients and their families!

Something I really value about working at O’Leary Orthodontics is that our team is so strong because we truly are a family, not just coworkers. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading books, and relaxing on the beach.

Dawn

Hello, my name is Dawn and I have been working in orthodontics since 1992. I have always loved orthodontics because of the transformation of smiles and the difference it makes for that individual. It is so rewarding to be a part of that process! You can find me assisting in the clinic having a great time talking with patients about their smiles.

Gena

Insurance/Financial Coordinator 

Hi, I’m Gena! I have been with Dr. O'Leary since 2021 after graduating from Midlands Tech as a Certified Dental Assistant. I assisted Dr. O'Leary with all things regarding braces and Invisalign treatment for 2 1/2 years. I have since taken on a new role and found a passion in coordinating insurance/financial benefits for our patients.  

My husband and I are from West Columbia, where he serves in the National Guard. We have a rambunctious German Shepard, Luna. I enjoy spending time with family/friends, working out, and warm, sunny weather.

I assist Dr. O'Leary with photographs/x-rays and scanning patients for appliances and Invisalign. I love working here because I have co-workers that are now family. Since joining the O'Leary team I've discovered a passion for teeth.

My boyfriend and I live in the Ballentine area with our fur baby, Marley. I spend my free time between my kitchen and garden. I enjoy the Game of Thrones series and fantasy fiction novels.

Lauren

Scheduling Coordinator/Marketing Liason

I assist patients with scheduling appointments, creating fun contests in the office, and making sure everything flows smoothly. In my spare time, I do all of the marketing for the office and work on social media content. I could not ask for better people to work with or a better doctor to work for.

Family means the absolute world to me so I spend as much time as I can with them. My boyfriend and I love the outdoors and doing projects around the house together. You can usually find me somewhere by the water on warm summer days or enjoying a relaxing night at home.

Cameron

I am one of the faces to greet you whenever you come to visit us in the office! I'm grateful to have stumbled upon this amazing team and now be a part of it. It's an amazing feeling to be able to connect and learn about so many of our patients and make them smile every day in the smallest ways!

During my spare time, I love cooking for my family and friends, taking road trips or you may find me at one of our local foodie spots.
