Meet the Orthodontic Team

Teamwork is what makes our vision of an outstanding orthodontic practice a reality. Although each team member brings her own specialized skill into the mix, everyone knows exactly how to blend abilities to create a positive atmosphere, as we work together to achieve great results for our patients. We are committed to being complete and comprehensive in our service to you and take great pride in the relationships we establish with our patients. It is an honor to be a part of your life. Allow us to introduce ourselves to you.

Britni Dougherty
Financial Coordinator
Britni is our financial coordinator and has been in orthodontics for 3 years. Britni's favorite thing about her job is being able to interact with the patients. She is originally from Fort Lauderdale, Florida but now resides in Winder, Georgia with her husband Roger, son Parker, two dogs Teddy and Beau, and a cat named Nala. In her spare time she likes to watch college football (Go Dawgs!), baseball (Go Braves!), go to the lake, and spend time with her family.

Leigh Moss
Scheduling Coordinator
Leigh is our patient scheduling coordinator. She is fairly new to the field of orthodontics, but loves it when patients come out to the lobby, after getting their braces off, and are smiling from ear to ear! Leigh grew up in Arkansas and has lived in the Atlanta area for the past 28 years. She has two grown children, a wonderful husband and two kids of the furry kind. When Leigh is not greeting our patients with a warm smile, Leigh can be found on the tennis court providing lessons. When not working, she loves knitting, making jewelry, gardening and cooking.
