Susan – Office Administrator
“I didn’t realize that I had found
my niche until I went to work in the business
office of a family dental practice in Central
Austin in the early 90’s. It was so enjoyable
getting to know our patients and their children,
friends, neighbors and even co-workers. It’s
great being able to help patients with things
like insurance and scheduling. I am thrilled to
be part of the fantastic front office here at
Buttercup Dental. In my spare time I enjoy gardening,
playing golf and raising thoroughbred race horses.
My husband and I have 5 children and 5 grandchildren.
My life is very full."
Susan graduated from the University of Texas
in 1973 with a degree in Interior Design.

Keely - Assistant
“I had been a dental assistant for 15 years for a close knit family dental practice in Louisiana. After our family settled into the Leander/Cedar Park community, I knew I was ready to find my new dental family. After interviewing with several dental practices, I knew that BCD was the place for me. The friendliness of the front office staff, their warm greeting, the professional and caring atmosphere was everywhere. In August of 2007, BCD became my new home.
I enjoy spending my time with my husband and two wonderful boys. Football, basesball,and basketball are just some of our exciting family activities. Our Louisiana culture is still in our hearts and it’s interwoven into our new Texas lifestyle with cajun recipes, festivities of Mardi Gras, and LSU TIGERS!!"
