Dr. Andrea Wimmergren
But Just Call Me Andrea!
I get it. Going to the dentist isn’t high on anyone’s list of fun things to do this week. Having someone prod and poke around in your mouth is uncomfortable. It just is.
But, because of the way we approach our relationships with our patients and their stressors, many patients actually look forward to their visits with us. It’s true! We just do it differently here.
I grew up around doctor’s offices (my parents were technicians at Mayo). I’ve seen patients treated like, well…patients, and I’ve seen patients treated like family. The patients treated like family were the patients who thrived. So that’s what we do at River’s Bend. That’s why we call it “Family Dentistry.”
Our practice has been building relationships for over 20 years. I joined the practice in 2018 after graduating with distinction from The U of M, bringing with me modern techniques and new technology. I love to make my patients (family) feel better and live pain-free.
Because you are family, we care enough to be transparent about financing, direct about your prognosis, and fanatical about making you feel better, now and forever. We hope to be part of your family for life.
