Teresa is the Practice Manager at Yadkin River Dental Spa, where she has been a valued team member since Dr. Philips purchased the practice from Dr. Gavin Harrell. With 27 years of experience in dentistry, Teresa began her career after graduating from the Dental Assisting Program at Wilkes Community College.

Teresa has a true passion for helping patients feel confident in their smiles and enjoys building meaningful relationships with those she meets. While she still loves assisting, she is most often found at the front desk, where she takes pride in helping patients feel comfortable and supported every step of the way.

Outside of the office, Teresa enjoys spending time at the beach and making memories with her husband and their two children. She also stays busy with her three beloved dogs.
