Practice Coordinator
stefanie@cohendentalcare.com
With over 28 years' experience in the dental field, I guess you could say that I am passionate about dentistry. I was a dental assistant for my first ten years in the profession and learned first-hand how patients should be treated clinically. I have worked in various dental specialties including general dentistry, oral surgery, and periodontics. Since 2017, I have been privileged to work as the practice coordinator in the office of Dr. Cohen and our amazing staff.
I am a mom to several rescue cats and a dog. I am a lover of all animals and practice a vegan lifestyle. My hobbies and passions include baking, bowling, golf, and spending time with my furry family, biped family and friends. I am also certified as an addiction counselor and as a phlebotomist. Throughout my life I have always enjoyed working with and helping people. I hope to be able to help each and every one of you as well.

Sophia Ortiz, R.D.H.
Registered Dental Hygienist
As a dental hygienist, my goal is to provide state-of-the-art dental hygiene care for all my patients. To help accomplish this goal, I continue to educate myself on the latest techniques and treatments available. I also try to make my patients’ dental visits as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
I have now been in dentistry for over sixteen years, fourteen of them working for Dr. Cohen. During all that time he has always made the office feel like a family environment. He always encourages growth and passion in the dental field. It is wonderful to know that Dr. Cohen and I share a passion for excellence in caring for our dental patients.
I love working with Dr. Cohen because he is a great dentist and he truly cares about his patients' well being. He is my boss, my mentor, and my friend.
Personally, I am happily married with a beautiful daughter who we adore very much. My husband and I are also blessed to be expecting a second child later this year. Yes, truly blessed!
