Sherry’s passion is meeting people and making new friends.  Her intense curiosity and need to please are perfectly suited for her position as our New Patient Coordinator.  She loves her patients as well as her co-workers and she says her friendship with Susan gets better each year/decade!

Sherry and her husband, Chuck, have been married for 33 years. They have two wonderful children, Kiel and KaLee and daughter-in-law, Camille.   In December of 2010 Sherry and Chuck were blessed with the arrival of Grandson Wesley Henderson.  He is such a joy in our life.

When I asked Kelly what she likes about the office and Susan, her response was, “ I like that each of us can be ourselves.  We all share in the management and responsibility so we also celebrate successes together.” 

Her life beyond the office is enjoying her 22 year old  daughter and 6 year old son, weight lifting, sand volleyball, and roller blading.
