McDermott Employee Cady Treatment Coordinator

Cady – Treatment Coordinator

I moved to the Brainerd Lakes area 13 years ago and found it to be the perfect place to raise my three boys. I began working at McDermott Orthodontics in 2008 as a Treatment Coordinator. I really enjoy getting to know all the kids and families in our community, in addition to helping them get a beautiful smile. In my free time, you’ll find me singing show tunes, eating doughnuts, thinking about chocolate, and hanging out at the lake.

I was born and raised in the Lakes area. I earned my Dental Assisting License from Central Lakes College. I’ve been a part of the McDermott Orthodontics team since 2001. Over the years, I’ve enjoyed getting to know all of our patients and help them through their orthodontic treatment. When I have free time, I enjoy various outdoor activities with my husband and our daughters. If I have to pick a favorite time of the day, it would have to be snack time!

I grew up in Wisconsin and love cheese. I am also a huge Packer fan and am known to wear a cheesehead occasionally. I have worked at McDermott Orthodontics since 2000. I think we offer the best orthodontic care in Minnesota, have the greatest orthodontist in the Midwest, and the most outstanding staff in America. I enjoy spending time with my husband and two children and taking advantage of all the great activities available to us in Minnesota. When I get a chance, I like to read a good book or knit something fun for my friends and family.
