Cindy

Office Manager & Treatment Coordinator

Cindy has been at our front desk for more than a decade but started her dental career as an assistant in 1990 and has worked with Dr. Geldart in various dental offices over the last 17 years. Cindy, who has become our insurance “guru,” finds helping patients understand and utilize their benefits is both rewarding and challenging. She also likes getting to know everyone on a more personal level, which helps her in communicating with them and helping them to feel more “at home” in a dental environment.

Cindy lives in Stephens City with Dwayne, with whom she enjoys home decorating, gardening, and taking long drives. She has two grown children, Christina and Jeremy.

Nikki

Dental Assistant

After attending Loudoun Valley High school, Nikki graduated from Professional Careers Institute for dental assisting in 1992. Since she grew up in the dental office atmosphere (her mother has been in the dental field for more than 30 years), it was a natural transition to become a dental assistant. Nikki likes educating our patients about the importance for good dental health and enjoys helping them to feel at ease during their dental visit. 

Nikki lives in Winchester with her husband Matt and two daughters, Kortney and Sierra. She enjoys reading in her spare time, and her girls keep her very busy with their various sports activities.

Ilka

Dental Assistant / Front Desk

Ilka graduated from Virginia Tech with a bachelor’s degree in liberal arts and sciences, with minors in animal science, biology, and chemistry. After working as a K-9 officer for the Department of Agriculture at Dulles International Airport for ten years, she decided to change her career path and joined our practice in October 2005. Ilka enjoys chatting with the patients and expanding her ever-growing knowledge of the dental world.

Ilka is an avid equestrian who has three horses and takes lessons to hone her riding skills in preparation for competing in horse trials. Along with quilting, crocheting, and taking her Beagles for walks, she really enjoys watching Red Sox games with her husband Justin.

Elise

Hygienist

Elise’s dental career started in 1981 when she attended dental assisting school. She worked as an assistant until she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in dental hygiene from Thomas Jefferson University in 1991. After working in various periodontal and general dentistry offices, she brought her extensive periodontal knowledge to our practice in 2005. Elise has a passion for working with patients with periodontal issues and finds it satisfying to see them blossom into healthy, happy dental patients.

Elise lives in Purcellville with her husband Tommy and two children, Melanie and Seth. She spends her time outside the office caring for her horses, dogs, and the other critters that reside at her home. She is also very active with her children’s sporting activities, football, and horse eventing. 

Anne

Hygienist

After graduating from high school, Anne attended West Virginia University for a year, then decided to put her career on hold to start a family. After raising her four children — Michelle, Mark, Joseph, and Julianne — to their teen years, she returned to college and graduated from Northern Virginia Community College in 1997 with an associate’s degree in dental hygiene. She has worked for Dr. Geldart in various locations for 14 years and been in the Purcellville office since 2002. Anne loves the challenge of helping people relax in the dental office. Seeing patients twice a year enables her to really get to know them and their families, which she loves. Her husband makes fun of her because she calls her patients “my friends.”

Anne lives in Lovettsville on a small farm with her five horses and her husband Tom, with whom she spends as much time as possible and whom she adores! She also thoroughly enjoys the times she gets to play “Granny” to her two grandchildren, Lyon and Poet.

Bonnie

Dental Hygienist

Bonnie received her bachelor’s degree in health science from Bridgewater College and went on to graduate from the dental hygiene program at Northern Virginia Community College. She has been in the dental field, primarily as a periodontal hygienist, for 29 years and has worked in our practice part time since 2005. Bonnie loves meeting new people, educating them about dental hygiene, and learning their interests. She also enjoys watching her patients’ children grow up.

The rest of Bonnie’s time is spent as a full-time mom to her two children, Melissa and Carson. When she gets a free moment, she enjoys reading, watercolor painting, and doing volunteer work.

Heather

Dental Assistant

Heather graduated from Excel School of Dental Assisting in Effingham, Illinois in 1997. She works closely with patients and assists the doctors with their care. Although Heather enjoys working with patients of all ages, interacting with our pediatric patients brings her even more joy. She not only likes providing preventive care, but also enjoys helping to educate them and their family about the importance of maintaining good dental habits.

Originally from the Midwest, Heather relocated to Purcellville with her husband Michael. They are parents to six wonderful kids and a brand-new grandbaby.
