Vanessa Fuller, RDH
Dental Hygienist
3639 Goodwater St. Mt. Pleasant,SC
Summary
Recently moved to Mount Pleasant with my husband and we love it here!
My two children, 23 and 25 years old, already live in the area and am happy to be near them. Worked as a dental hygienist for many years in Maryland after moving there from California where I received my education. Received my South Carolina Dental Hygiene license this summer.
Excited to work with a dental office that cares personally for their patients and gives them a warm, caring experience with professional, top notch skills.
Happy when patients realize how their oral health impacts their whole body.
Love working with colleagues as part of a team who enjoy what they do.
Looking to work in South Carolina half the year, from November to June because we plan to return to Ocean City, MD in the summers where we have other family.
Spending time at the beach, home organizing, and Purre Barre exercise classes are my main hobbies.
