It is our great pleasure to introduce Larraine Wyatt, RDH! Larraine is joining our practice as a full-time hygienist. With her warm manner and excellent skills, we are delighted to have her provide care for our patients. Larraine would like to share a little bit about herself:

"Born and raised in Axton, Virginia, I now reside in Chatham. I received my Associates Degree in Dental Hygiene at Virginia Western Community College in Roanoke. I am proudly celebrating 20 years as a hygienist this year and am looking forward to gaining new experience working with Dr. Elliott and her team!

When not in the office, I enjoy being actively involved at my church, reading, going to movies, and spending time with my family and friends. I live with my husband Jesse and our daughter Gracie."

Please help us welcome Larraine!

We are pleased to announce that Dr. Philippe Franco is joining our practice! He comes to us with several years of experience as a general dentist.

Raised in a military family, Dr. Franco has had the privilege of living in Germany, throughout the United States, and finally settling down in Lynchburg, Virginia. For the past 23 years he has been proud to call Virginia his home. He had a successful marketing career prior to earning his dental degree at Virginia Commonwealth University's School of Dentistry.

Philippe enjoys patient interaction and continuing education, which keeps him up to date with the latest in dental advances. He believes in giving back to the community, and currently volunteers as a mentor at the Free Clinic of Central Virginia.

Philippe and his wife, Rebecca, are proud parents of three active boys and a tough younger daughter. Whether he's cheering his boys at soccer tournaments, playing at the park, or teaching cooking techniques in the kitchen, Philippe loves spending time with his family.

Please help us welcome Dr. Franco!
