She finds fulfillment in conversing with them, particularly those who may feel anxious about dental visits. Jackie’s primary goal is to ensure that every patient leaves the office with a positive perception of dental care. Recognizing the vulnerability many individuals feel regarding their smiles, she goes above and beyond to create a comfortable environment during appointments, providing gentle cleanings and personalized care tailored to each patient’s needs.

Jackie’s favorite aspect of her role is educating patients on their dental health in an understandable manner.

Maribel Patient Care Coordinator

Maribel

office manager

Maribel joined Estero Bay Dental in 2025, bringing five years of experience in the dental field and a passion for delivering exceptional patient care. With a background spanning Dental Assisting, Patient Care Coordination, and Insurance & Billing, she quickly developed a well-rounded mastery of dental office operations. I 2026, that dedication was recognized when she was promoted to Office Manager. It’s a role she was made for, and one that her patients and teammates had seen coming long before the title made it official.

In every position she has held, Maribel’s defining quality has been her ability to make the complex feel simple. She has a natural gift for helping patients understand their treatment journey — breaking down processes, answering questions with patience, and ensuring no one ever leaves feeling confused or overlooked. Her clinical background in dental assisting gives her a unique advantage as Office Manager, allowing her to bridge the front and back office with ease and keep the entire practice running as one cohesive, well-coordinated team.

Born in New Jersey and raised in Labelle, FL, Maribel is deeply family-oriented and happiest when surrounded by the people she loves — especially her niece and nephews. Outside the office, she’s an avid shopper with a genuine passion for the beauty industry, having even completed professional training in eyebrow grooming. Fluent in both English and Spanish, she brings an extra layer of warmth and connection to her Spanish-speaking patients.
