KAREN

Patient & Practice Co-ordinator

I have been at Beaches Dentistry for more than three decades. I have a special bond with our patients and love seeing them. Knowing that our patients are being served with excellence is what makes me content at work. My role revolves around making sure patient's receive the best care and are prepared before and after they see our doctors.

SHELLI

Patient & Practice Co-ordinator

I have been around dentistry for two decades. I help patients with appointment scheduling, treatment plans, insurance questions, co-ordinating financials and more. My goal is to keep our office flow as smooth and easy as possible so our doctors can concentrate on patient procedures and treatment.

KETIA

Dental Hygienist

I have been in the dental field since 2019. As a hygienist I enjoy promoting dental health to my patients and educating them how to care for their teeth and gums. This certainly brings me immense satisfaction. Even though I am one of the newest member of Beaches Dentistry, it feels like home. We all communicate very well and work together as a team to provide patients with highest quality care.

BENJAMIN

Dental Technician

I have been in the dental field for four decades and have had a relationship with Beaches Dentistry for several years. I enjoy working as a team, communicating effectively and maintaining strong relationships with our patients. My goals are to maintain the highest standards in creating cosmetic and sound restorations using state of the art equipment at our in house lab. We are able to provide customized planning with our in house facility and saving valuable time for our patients.

JOYFUL

Smile Mascot

Joyful is our Smile mascot. He along with his mom Gina and his siblings were rescued in Puerto Rico by a very kind lady. His mom decided to stay back on the island and stays in touch. Joyful and his siblings were flown to Florida and put up for adoption. Joyful is officially a senior now and likes to take it easy most days. He does love walks and hikes. His favorite food is salmon and he will let you pet him on his own terms.

ESMIRALDA

Doctor's Assistant

My days at Beaches Dentistry consist of assisting our Doctors with making sure our patients are attended to with care and are leaving satisfied with all questions and concerns addressed. I am moved to Jacksonville from Albania and am fluent in Albanian and Italian.

My favorite part of my job is building individual relationships with our patients and that there is always something new to learn. What I enjoy most about working here is the teamwork and the ability to laugh and have fun while caring of our patients.

KRISTY

Doctor's Assistant

I graduated from FSCJ In 2015 with my EFDA Certificate. To be able to provide honest services, and good work is something I strive for. It is my job to advocate for what the patient is seeking, as well as being an educator so they make the best decision when It comes to their treatment. An office that listens and educates has always been what I look for in a team and I have found that here. I have three children and two dogs.

I love going home to them and my husband. I love the mountains and aspire to travel to Norway.

What our patients are saying

Dr. Raina has been an outstanding orthodontist for me! I needed upper and lower braces as an adult and she made the entire process a fantastic experience! The entire office staff is so kind, patient, and personable! Another plus is having my dentist, Dr. Nodesh, in the same office so cleanings and routine dental checkups could overlap on the same day as orthodontic appointments.

Rhonda J

I’ve been going here for nearly 35 years, and that isn’t going to change anytime soon. The staff is very professional and friendly.

Will H.

Very friendly and collegial staff. Dr. Nodesh was very kind and explained me my treatment plan in detail. Highly recommended

Shilpa D

Best most thorough and least pain giving dentist I’ve ever experienced. I am 74 years old, blessed with excellent teeth and am particular about them. The office is equipped with the latest medical equipment and accessories. If you are in the market for a new dentist, this is the place.

Amos A.

Dr. Nodesh and his staff are great. I have never had a dentist who is more meticulous and committed to making sure everything is done correctly and looks great. Thanks Doc

Dorri K.

Russ

"So kind, endlessly chatty (which I love), intelligent, funny, and engaging. They obviously love their jobs! And their attitude is infectious."

Win C.

"Dr Nodesh at Beaches Dentistry is amazing! He explains the treatment plan clearly and answers all questions before he commences. Never in a rush."

Nasrin R.

"I could not be happier thus far with my past 3 visits to Beaches Dental. Dr Nodesh has a relaxed, yet professional bedside manner."
