Administrative

At the heart of every great practice is someone who works behind the scenes to manage every aspect of its operation. At Lindner Dental, that person is Ellen Harrington. While her official title is Practice Coordinator, she wears many hats, including organizer, educator, listener, mentor and leader. She has been at the helm of the practice’s administration since 1987, responsible for project management, leadership development, strategic planning and dental health education.

Ellen knows the practice inside and out, making her an invaluable member of the Lindner Dental family. While she effortlessly keeps everything running smoothly, she’s also drawing from her clinical background in dentistry and business management training to help patients with any questions or concerns they may have during the course of treatment.

A fan of walking outdoors, spending time at the NH and Maine coasts, yoga, and reading, Ellen enjoys spending time with her children, grandchildren, extended family and friends.

Ellen is a member of Sigma Phi Alpha Dental Hygiene National Honor Society, the American Association of Dental Office Managers and a member of the Advisory Board for health, science and technology for the Manchester School of Technology. She received an associate degree in dental hygiene from Bristol Community College and a bachelor’s degree in small business management from Southern NH University.

Renee is our Orthodontic Department Manager as well as a Certified Orthodontic Assistant. She has been a part of the Lindner Dental family for almost 25 years. Renee attributes her longevity here at LDA to a great group of coworkers and amazing patients. She has always said, “getting to know our patients and watching their confidence grow as their smiles are transformed is very rewarding.” Renee’s favorite thing is laughing with patients and making them feel comfortable and at ease. When Renee is not in the clinic, where she spends most of her day, she is behind the scenes creating schedules, training new team members and collaborating with other department managers to ensure a positive patient experience.

In her free time, Renee is usually on the college sidelines cheering on her two daughters playing soccer and rugby. She can also be found exploring the great outdoors with her husband and two golden retrievers.
