Meet the Radiant Exceptional Dentistry Team

Connie

Registered Dental Hygienist

That woman, with the effervescent smile and easy laugh, bouncing along backroads of the Texas hill country in a 1975 lime green Jeep CJ-5 is none other than our beloved hygienist, Connie. Her patients love her almost as much as her husband, Joe, her three boys and six grandchildren. Since June of 1989, Connie has worked diligently to constantly train to perfect her hygienist skills. And, it shows. As your hygienist, Connie goes beyond a routine cleaning, she ascertains your health, your bite, your breathing, and a myriad of other clues at each session and quickly alerts Dr. Reece and Dr. Jouett to evaluate and recommend a course of action. This enables you to stay on top of your dental health proactively and effortlessly with each visit.

The glowing reviews Connie regularly receives showcase her caring nature, so it is no surprise to learn it extends beyond her family and friends to their pets (currently a 15 year old Weimaraner). Connie is a farm and ranch girl at heart having grown up full bore FAA surrounded by sheep, goats, cows, pigs and chickens. And, she loved it. Today, she and Joe can be found on the dance floor of our state’s best live music venues when they are not with the grandkids. Photography, gardening and yard work occupy the rest of Connie’s naturally inquisitive nature. You are going to be really happy when you meet Connie and proud to call her your hygienist. And more importantly, your friend.

Kimm

Treatment Coordinator

Kimm Knight is one of those wonderful individuals you feel like you have known forever. Patients love her approachability, her welcoming smile, and how she always has a hug at the ready. Her loving voice soothes the most nervous of patients and reminds us all of the joy of friendships.

At the office, Kimm is the consummate professional, having worked in all aspects of the practice from assistant to registered dental hygienist to front desk. But what truly sets Kimm apart and instantly bonds her with patients, is her compassion. It is genuine and real. Kimm helps guide patients through their questions and concerns, clearly explains treatment options, provides experienced insight, calms trepidations and gives guidance on financial options. Patients share their innermost thoughts on their current smile with Kimm and also the smile they see themselves obtaining. They trust her in all things and it shows in the quality of the relationship patients have with the practice.

But there is more than just ‘work Kimm’, there is Kimm the ever patient mom to two daughters, Kimm the wife to her bass and crappie fishing husband, and most recently, there is Kimm, the cancer survivor, who has shown us all the power of courage, optimism and prayer can have in our lives when facing adversity.

We can’t say enough good things about this special woman and know you will feel the same way too when you meet her (and that’s not just because she is an exceptional baker who brings her co-workers and patients goodies on a regular basis!).

Kimberly

Kimberly’s skills and accolades are many, including her work at Blinn Hygiene school where she has taught hygiene to the next generation of young professionals.

Kimberly takes her family and grandmother role seriously and works tirelessly to be a positive role model in their lives including her Son-in-law Joshua that she considers a son.

A native of Bryan, Texas, April is known for her ability to cultivate and keep lifelong friendships. Early on she had an eye for occupations with an appreciation for health and beauty. The dental field seemed a logical fit and a good decision as April is now in her third decade of the dental profession she loves. When asked what was her favorite part of working at Radiant Exceptional Dentistry, she said, ‘I love that we create life-changing smiles and help people achieve their dreams’. I also love that we are now treating people from all over the world who travel just to experience this incredible team’s dental work.
