	Dr. Robert McBride Hello! In 1989, I decided to build my own website to offer information about my special dental practice, because it is unique in so many ways. The people shown on this page are a large part of what makes it that way. It was developed to offer easy navigation to an array of subjects that describe its uniqueness. I believed back then that it could be very useful for anyone who is interested in coming on board as a patient, in differentiating us from the multitude of dental practices that exist in the Southland. This has proven to be true, as new patients who travel from near and far indicate how helpful it was in making a decision. All the information that is linked from the Home Page has been authored by me, and the Dictionary of Terms and Services offers information on most all dental topics, and has an internal search engine to assist you in finding specific information you may be seeking. So, welcome aboard and enjoy the trip!
Karen Chitwood I am proud to be Dr. McBride’s office manager and enjoy being part of such a caring environment. We have a great dental team that works well together making sure that every client experiences optimal care. I graduated from the Cerritos College Dental program and have spent over 28 years serving dental patients. I recognize and appreciate quality dentistry, and am happy to be associated with such a fine dental practice. I have been happily married for more than 28 years, and am the mother of one daughter and three sons. If you have spare time, ask me about my 3 grandchildren. My hobbies include reading, quilting, crafting, and spending time with my grandkids. Other interests include volunteering in local schools, camping with family, and listening to jazz and big bands. Did I mention my grandkids?
	Blanca Ozuna Hello! My name is Blanca, and I am an RDA (Registered Dental Assistant). I work closely with Dr. McBride and make sure that dental treatment is carried out comfortably and smoothly. I received my Registered Dental Assistant license through the dental assistant training program at Concord University in 1993. I am the proud mother of two daughters. I enjoy the outdoors, movies and love to read. I enjoy working with Dr. McBride and oversee the maintenance of our equipment and dental supplies. I make sure that the clinical area is spotless, as well as enforcing OSHA standards to a higher than standard level. My work is fascinating in that I continue to learn something new everyday from Dr McBride. Time seems to fly when we are working together. One important thing I have discovered is that his philosophy and our environment offers me opportunity to be myself and really enjoy what I’m doing. This I do through impeccable preparation. This gives me the confidence to be “in the moment” as I interact with our clients, as caring for our clients prior, during and after treatment is my most important task
Jenean Dauray Hi, my name is Jenean Dauray, your Dental Hygienist, if we have not yet met. I truly enjoy being a part of Dr. McBride’s team and find my work to be very fulfilling. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I have two nieces and a nephew with whom I spend as much time as I can. I grew up in Cypress, and still spend much time with my family there. As a dental hygienist I look forward to learning new and exciting things about the dental profession. Since joining Dr. McBride’s team I have gained a higher appreciation for dentistry and dental hygiene and the manner in which patients should truly be treated. I look forward to building healthy relationships with you, as being your dental hygienist means a lot to me. Thanks for reading my Bio.
	Jean Zirkle I am Dr. McBride’s bookkeeper, and besides keeping our creditors happy, I provide Dr. McBride with information that allows him to manage the business of the practice. My husband Dave and I have two children, Kyle and Nicole. I enjoy reading and many family activities. I am very hands-on in the remodeling of our beautiful home. Would you believe knocking down walls and tiling bathrooms and kitchen tops?
