Why She Was Nominated

Dr. Mariscal’s office is very high-energy. There’s always something spirited happening among her staff, whether they’re wearing bedazzled T-shirts or making watermelon slushies — and patients notice.

Exciting New Trend

Comfortable dentistry. “The new topical anesthetics are fantastic,” Dr. Mariscal says, “but patients really love our massage chairs.” They also surely enjoy the office’s free Wi-Fi and the entertainment system that streams Netflix during treatment.

Pandora’s glorious mishmash: country Monday, classic-rock Tuesday, Pink Floyd Wednesday. . . .
