Alina graduated as a Dental Assistant Level II in 2004 at George Brown College. She initially started working as a chairside assistant at a general practice for 5 years and gained clinical knowledge by working side by side with Dentists, then worked as a treatment coordinator and front desk receptionist. She moved on to working for an Oral Surgeon Specialist for the next 10 years as an office administrator and is now working at Dentistry On Duncan Mill, back to her original roots at a general practice at the front desk. She loves interacting with people and helping patients to answer questions to do with clinical, financial and insurance questions. Her hobbies are spending time with her husband, dogs, family and cooking and hopes to travel the world one day to experience food, culture and people!
