Ava
Treatment Coordinator
Our Treatment Coordinator, Ava, has been working for Drs. Feusier for 10 years now and started as a patient of Dr. Chad Wright’s when she was in High School. Ava guides new patients through their first exam with the doctors and helps come up with a plan to achieve their dream smile. She will work with your insurance to maximize any orthodontic benefit and create a personal payment plan for whatever remains. Ava’s favorite part of her job is meeting local families and building on those relationships throughout their smile transformation. When not at work, Ava is busy chasing after her two little boys at the beach or park.
Debra
Treatment Coordinator
Deb started in the field as an orthodontic assistant 35 plus years ago. She found that she really enjoyed getting to know each patient and following along on their journey to a new smile. When Dr. Wright took over the practice, she was the natural choice for Treatment Coordinator and remained so for the next 30 years. In 2022, Deb retired and realized quickly how much she missed making connections with our patients and families each week. Thankfully, she has been able to come back and work part time as a TC in our Santa Barbara location. When not helping out around the office, Deb enjoys taking her dog Garbanzo for long walks and spending time with her husband.
