Andrea Gonzalez - Dental Assistant
Andrea recently moved from California, and am a new resident to North Carolina. I love taking photos, and hope to one day do photography as a profession. Drawing and Painting are two special hobbies I enjoy doing in my spare time. Tae kwon do was a hobby of mine for three and a half years, in which I obtained my 1st degree Black Belt. I have a love for foreign languages, and currently speak three. Spanish, English, and French. My plans are to travel to Paris, France with my sister, learn about the culture, and see where our French takes us. I love all animals, and currently have a pet Ferret named Frenchy. All my other time goes into editing photos, and sharing them with friends and family back in California . 

Jeannette Melia - Dental Assistant
Jeannette, a native of Cincinnati, moved to Cary January 1, 1999 from Syracuse, New York (yes, she moved on New Year’s Day).   Jeannette joined Geeta Bhat, D.D.S after serving as a dental assistant with the UNC Chapel Hill Dental School pediatric dentistry program for eight years.   Having a dentist for a father, the dental field is second nature to her.  Jeannette worked for her father while still in high school and later with other Cincinnati area dental practices.  After earning a Medical Assistant certificate she spent a few years as a Medical Assistant but returned to dentistry after moving to Syracuse with her husband and children.

Jeannette enjoys spending time with her family and friends and her interest in collector dolls has grown into a serious pastime (“affliction” according to her husband) as she has amassed a very respectable doll collection over the past several years.
