Administrative Staff:

Karena Mounts, Office Coordinator/Finance Manager
KarenaI grew up in Fort Shaw, and graduated from Simms High School.  I have been with Hays Dental Group since 2005 and enjoy working with our extremely caring doctors and our friendly staff.  Hays Dental Group is my home away from home.  I have three very active boys who play sports all year round. When we're not traveling for hockey, football, wrestling, and baseball, we enjoy camping, boating, riding motorcycles and relaxing (when we can).

I have been with Hays Dental Group for a combined total of 4 years now. (I left for a year after having my youngest child, and would've never gone back to work unless it was for Hays Dental Group). My goal for my career with Hays Dental Group is to give supreme customer service to all patients I come in contact with. I enjoy working with all of our patients, especially when I have seen some extreme patient transformations over the years, literally frowns turned upside down. That, along with being able to work for extremely caring doctors and a friendly staff is why I love it here!!
