After transitioning from a successful career in the financial industry, she brought her strong organizational skills, professionalism, and attention to detail into dentistry — first in a denturist office and now in general practice as a dental receptionist.
As the first point of contact for our patients, she plays an essential role in shaping a positive experience from the very first call. Her calm, welcoming presence and strong administrative expertise help appointments run smoothly, insurance questions feel manageable, and every patient feel genuinely cared for. She takes pride in creating an environment where patients are greeted warmly, listened to attentively, and supported with clarity and compassion.
Outside of the office, she spends her summers at the trailer with her son and family, enjoying beach days and relaxing evenings by the fire — bringing that same sense of warmth and family values into our practice every day.
Since beginning her career in dentistry in 2021, she has been dedicated to creating an exceptional patient experience rooted in education, compassion, and professionalism. With a genuine passion for oral health and dental hygiene, she takes pride in helping patients understand the “why” behind their care—empowering them to make confident, informed decisions about their smiles.
In addition to her clinical knowledge, she brings strong administrative expertise to the practice. Organized, detail-oriented, and highly efficient, she plays an integral role in ensuring the office runs smoothly behind the scenes. From coordinating schedules and supporting treatment planning to maintaining seamless communication between team members and patients, she is committed to delivering both clinical excellence and operational efficiency.
She is known for her warm, approachable nature and her ability to build meaningful relationships with patients of all ages. Her goal is simple: to ensure every person who walks through the door feels welcomed, cared for, and confident in their oral health journey.
Outside the office, she is a proud mom to her sweet son and cherishes time spent with family and friends—because she believes life (and smiles) are best when shared.
A graduate of Algonquin College’s Dental Hygiene program in 1994, she has dedicated her career to delivering exceptional, patient-focused care for over three decades. She spent 24 years working alongside Dr. Buschlen and is proud to continue serving the practice’s long-standing, loyal patients with Dr. Kim. She is excited to be part of this next chapter, sharing a commitment to education, integrity, and patient-first dentistry.
Her passion for dentistry began early — she has wanted to be a dental hygienist since she was six years old. That lifelong enthusiasm is evident in her dedication to preventive care and in the meaningful relationships she builds with her patients. She believes strongly in empowering individuals through education and continually seeks opportunities to expand her knowledge and refine her skills to better serve those in her care.
Outside the office, she enjoys walking her chocolate lab, swimming, playing on her softball team, traveling, and spending quality time with her husband, son, and friends. Known for her positive energy and warm presence, she jokes that her secret fuel is café mochas — the perfect companion to a busy day helping patients smile with confidence.
Chloe graduated from the Algonquin College Dental Hygiene program in 2015 with an Advanced Diploma and has been committed to providing thoughtful, comprehensive care ever since. She is passionate about building genuine relationships with her patients and believes that education is the foundation of lasting oral health. Chloe takes time to ensure her patients understand the connection between oral health and overall wellness, empowering them to take an active role in their care.
She has a special interest in myofunctional therapy and its impact on airway health, recognizing the important role oral function plays in breathing, sleep, and long-term wellbeing. Chloe looks forward to continuing her education and expanding her focus in this growing area of dentistry.
Known for her gentle approach and calming presence, Chloe strives to create a comfortable, supportive experience for every patient she sees. She feels grateful to be part of the Larkspur Dental team and is proud to serve the community.
Outside the clinic, Chloe enjoys taking dance classes, spending quality time with her husband and young son, and making memories while exploring new places together.
Originally from Russia, she moved to Canada in 1997 with her husband and two daughters. Soon after settling in Ontario, she pursued her passion for healthcare and dentistry, graduating from the Toronto School of Business in 1999 as a Chairside Dental Assistant. Since then, she has built a strong career supporting both patients and the dental team with dedication, skill, and attention to detail.
She loves dentistry because she believes oral health is deeply connected to overall health and wellness. With a strong interest in holistic health and natural medicine, she appreciates the important role dentistry plays in supporting the whole body. Her approach combines clinical excellence with genuine care for patients’ comfort and wellbeing.
In the clinic, she is an essential part of Dr. Kim’s team — often jokingly referred to as his “third and fourth arm.” From assisting during procedures to ensuring every instrument and operatory is perfectly prepared, she keeps the day running smoothly behind the scenes. Known as the “queen of sterilization,” she takes great pride in maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness, safety, and organization throughout the practice.
Patients appreciate her calm presence, kindness, and the sense of confidence she brings to every appointment.
Outside the office, she enjoys spending time in nature. Her hobbies include cross-country skiing, gardening, and exploring the outdoors in search of wild mushrooms and medicinal herbs. Her love of nature and natural wellness reflects the same thoughtful, balanced approach she brings to both her life and her work in dentistry.
