MEET THE TEAM

Kathie started at NorthPark Family Dentistry on the day it opened in November of 2000. She graduated from Des Moines Area Community College for Dental Hygiene in 1979 and has been a Dental Hygienist for over 41 years. She began her career out of college working for Dr. Harold Schuchmann and Dr. Steve Gidel (Dr. Ryan Gidel’s Father) in Humboldt. One thing that Kathie enjoys about her job is that it is like taking care of family after this many years! She knows about all of their children and life events. With consistent patients, she has cleaned their teeth over 50 times! Kathie feels that we have a great office and that everyone works well together. Outside of work, Kathie enjoys gardening and thus canning the produce. She is actively involved with church activities and enjoys having her grandchildren close by.
