Meet Ada Hambrett
Practice Manager

Hi, I’m Ada. I am the Practice Manager at Lane Cove Orthodontics and have been with the team since 1998. We have a fantastic, caring team at Lane Cove Orthodontics with whom I enjoy working.

I was born in Switzerland and migrated to Australia when I was 25. Besides English, I also speak German, French and Italian. I have a wonderful husband and two grown up children with whom I like spending my free time with.

Outside work, I enjoy going to the theatre, the movies, reading books and travelling. I love cooking and most of all, socialising with family and friends.

Hi I’m Linda. I am a receptionist at Lane Cove Orthodontics and I coordinate treatment for all our patients along with my colleague, Judith. I have been part of the Lane Cove Orthodontics team since 1998. I love my job, the best part meeting new people and being part of a friendly team.

I was born in the UK and migrated to Australia when I was 36 with my two children, Claire and Robert. I completed my Dental Assisting Certificate in the UK and have worked in general dental practice until I joined the orthodontic team at Lane Cove.

On weekends I enjoy catching up with my children Claire and Robert, and my son-in-law, Kevin. I love going to the beach, reading, yoga, and walking with my friend, Richard and his beautiful Weimarana, Joe.

Hi, I’m Judith. I’m the person you might see at reception scheduling your next appointment, or answering your telephone enquiry, or then again you might see me assisting Dr Rex and Dr Ballard in the clinic with all our patients.

Have you ever wondered where my funny accent comes from? Well, I was born in Switzerland and migrated to Australia when I was 24 and therefore my native language is Swiss German.

I am married and have two children, Sabrina and Daniel, who are both in their twenties. When I am away from work I enjoy 4-wheel driving and camping holidays, discovering this beautiful country of ours! In my spare time I work-out at the gym, enjoy reading an interesting book or going to the movies.

Hi, I’m Maria and I joined the team at Lane Cove Orthodontics in 2008. I am a clinical assistant and help Dr Rex and Dr Ballard with appointments, taking photos, preparing X-rays and explaining plates and braces to patients.

I am married with two beautiful young girls. In my spare time I like to read, bake and go to the gym.

Hi, I’m Jackie and I am a clinical assistant. You’ll see me in the clinic helping Dr Rex and Dr Ballard with your appointments, taking photographs, and advising you on how to look after your appliances. I also help with administrative duties.

I have recently completed my Dental Assisting Certificate and am currently studying at university to become a Nutritionist. In my spare time I love going out with friends, playing sport and going to the beach.
