!Administrative Staff
Carrie is our current office manager. Once Abby gets around to updating the website, you'll be able to read a little bit about her here! Carrie is always ready to greet new patients with a smile and welcome them to the office!
Abby is our resident behind-the-scenes gal! She's in charge of maintaining our website (yes, it's me writing this!) and handling any technical difficulties that may pop up.
When Abby's not at work or school, she loves to cuddle up and play video games with her cat and a coffee. You may see her in the office once in a blue moon filling in for Carrie or working in the back!
If you've been coming to the office for a while, you've certainly had a laugh with Denise, our previous office manager! While Denise has retired from front desk life to her new dream home in the Virginia countryside, she remains a core part of the Oleander Chiropractic family as a friendly ear and consult for our current administrative staff. We wanted to give her a shoutout here for being such an important part of the OC crew, even if you won't see her in the office anymore :)
