Erin D.
Registered Dental Hygienist
I earned my Bachelor of Science (dental hygiene) from UBC in 2012 and joined Dr. Klimek’s team in 2013. I provide comprehensive assessment of my patients’ oral health in coordination to overall health, and plan a systematic periodontal treatment plan, all in a calm and light-hearted manner. I enjoy interacting with patients of all ages and finding the individuality in people’s treatment plans, which allows me to tailor the care I provide to them.
This office has the best staff! Everyone works well as a team and has a lot of fun while doing so. The staff and doctors are positive, upbeat, and all hardworking individuals, which makes it an enjoyable environment for patients and staff alike.
I am a mother of three young boys, of which two are twins. My husband and I, along with the kids and dog, love taking advantage of the simplicity of the North Shore beauty, beaches, and family fun. We enjoy traveling to the Shuswap area to the family cottage for much-needed rest and relaxation when we can, and try to just keep up with the three very active little ones.
Erin Z.
Registered Dental Hygienist
I completed my CDA training at Camosun College in 2001. Then I underwent the orthodontic module at UBC in 2002, and worked as an orthodontic CDA for eight years before returning to school to complete a three-year program in dental hygiene at Vancouver Community College. Since joining Mountainview Dental Centre, I have focused all my skills on helping my patients maintain their optimal oral health. I enjoy connecting with people and putting nervous and anxious patients at ease.
Here at Mountainview, we all have a high standard of care and respect each other. Working as a team is so important in dentistry, and I feel we effectively manage to do that.
When I’m not at work, I enjoy cycling around Vancouver, beating my husband Jay at Scrabble, and keeping up with my energetic toddler Eva and my dog Ruby.
Kara
Dental Hygienist
I worked in the dental field in the Philippines and the United Arab Emirates since 2013. When I immigrated to Canada in 2018, I worked as a Certified Dental Assistant and then studied Dental Hygiene in Toronto. I have been with Mountainview Dental Centre since 2021. I am passionate about providing exceptional patient care with a gentle and empathic approach. I'm commited to ensuring all our patients experience a personalized dental care to help them improve their overall oral health. Being a part of the Mountainview team has been an awesome and enriching experience. Everyone cares, supports, and respects each other. We all work together to ensure that our patients receive the best care possible. When not in the office, I enjoy doing pilates and planning my next travel adventure. I enjoy reading and relaxing at home but don't miss out on the opportunity to hang out with friends and do some window shopping.
Nooneh
Dental Hygienist
I completed my certified dental assistant certificate in 2000 and attained my registered dental hygiene diploma in 2006, the same year I joined the Mountainview team! I provide patients with comprehensive oral health assessments, and plan and implement dental hygiene treatment. I find helping our patients improve their oral and systemic health to be very rewarding.
I feel fortunate to be part of a team with such amazing clinicians. Our doctors all take immense pride in their work. I love that they are so diverse in their dental knowledge and have so much to share with their staff. I’m continually learning and feel fortunate to work alongside each one of our skilled dentists.
I was born, raised, and currently reside in North Vancouver with my husband and two boys. Outside of dentistry, I’m a fitness enthusiast and have a true passion for overall health and wellness.
