Connie

Clinical Assistant

My name is Connie Cardone, I have 38 years of experience in Orthodontics – 26 of those years have been spent with Dr. Pearce. You can find me at all four of our offices as I travel with Dr. Pearce to each one. On top of my role as a clinical assistant for Dr. Pearce, I also handle all of our offices’ lab work and fabrication of orthodontic appliances.

To me, you are not just a patient, you are a friend, a next door neighbor or a parent I know from school. We see you for monthly checkups and develop relationships. 

Outside of work I love to read, spend time with my family and enjoy the great outdoors.
