Elaine Dickson, lives in Orlando, Florida. She began her career in dentistry as a chairside assistant. Since this was a one girl office, Elaine also handled all administrative functions, including filing claims for third party reimbursement. Since 1985 Elaine's passion has been learning to master the complex, often exasperating dental insurance process, and thereby overcome the challenges it offers. She continues to stay abreast of the continual changes in the industry. Elaine's actual hands on experience over the past 30 years affords her the unique ability to speak in a language understood and appreciated by others in the field who face the same challenges every day.

Elaine has lectured on the subject of dental insurance in South Carolina, Alabama, and at the Florida National Dental Congress. She is also the author and instructor of our dental insurance course. Elaine's vision is to help others in the profession turn their dental insurance nightmares into sweet dreams. She is delighted to be affiliated with Warschaw Learning Institute, and in so doing is fulfilling her life long desire to teach.

 

Mary Lambourne, lives in Scottsdale, Arizona and is an ideal teacher for the Warschaw Learning Institute. Her initial training began as an orthodontic assistant. Since that was a "one girl office" she provided chairside assisting as well as staffing the front desk. Her career continued as an office manager for a pedodontist and later for an orthodontist. Up until 2003 Mary was the office manager for her husband's dental office. It was at that time that she joined the Warschaw Learning Institute.
She believes in order to have a productive dental practice it is essential that the front office staff be trained properly. Mary feels privileged to be involved in training new employees and employees who need fresh ideas.
