They’re the best, plain and simple. You won’t find a more qualified, more inspirational, or more caring group of people anywhere.

Our patients enjoy a stress-free, rewarding orthodontic experience at every visit. They look forward to meeting you, hearing your amazing stories, and putting you on the way to an incredible smile.
Melissa
As our lead clinic assistant, the amazing Melissa is something of a smile stylist (smile-ist?). It’s her job to help Dr. Crowe do hers. Help you do yours and help us do ours! Not only does she love seeing the before and after difference in our patients, but she also gets to help create that difference first hand.
Ryanna
Ryanna is not only a fantastic dental assistant, she is also the urban farmer of North Portland Orthodontics. She is often bringing in fresh produce from her organic home garden. Knowing the important role a healthy diet has in creating beautiful smiles has made Ry an invaluable member of our team.
Stephane
Stephane has been assisting for Dr. Crowe off and on since she was in assisting school – more than ten years ago! When she is not brightening our patients’ days, Stephane can be found traveling to just about anywhere on the globe. We are very lucky to have this bubbly, sweet, and adventurous woman as a full-time member of our clinic staff.
Angela
Angela’s can-do attitude, thorough work ethic, and sunny disposition make her the exceptional office manager of North Portland Orthodontics. A person might find that managing a busy, growing orthodontic practice is quite an undertaking, but Angela takes it all in stride. With experience in both the front office and clinic, she is the go-to gal for all patient inquiries and makes every area of our office run smoothly.
Shannon
We challenge you to find anyone who loves their job more than Shannon. She’s like the human version of one of those organizer notebooks. As Scheduling Coordinator, she keeps everything (and everyone) in line and extraordinarily happy.
Kayla
Have you ever wondered what a ray of sunshine actually looks like? Well... it's Kayla. She is a kind, exuberant, joyful woman. Kayla is one of the first people you will meet here at North Portland Orthodontics, she is our Treatment Coordinator extraordinaire. She likes very large triple double venti grande vanilla lattes with an extra shot and The Portland Trail Blazers.
Stephanie
Have you ever met the nicest person in the world? Yeah, us too, it's Stephanie. And to boot, she loves giraffes. Why does she love giraffes? Well because they are so cute, obviously. (She may or may not have an extensive collection of stuffed giraffes, shhh) We are lucky to have this organized clinician here to speak kindness and keep us on track.
