Brenda Renaud
Dental Assistant
Clinical Manager 

Brenda started her career as a Dental Assistant in 1998. That decision has really changed her life for the better. All these many years later, when she goes to work, it’s not really work. Brenda truly enjoys every aspect of dentistry, but most of all it’s the patients whom she has come to know so well that are the highlight of the profession; they are her family. Brenda has been a team member at Dr. Beninato's since 2007. "We have all been through many challenges together over the years, most recently COVID.
"I wouldn’t change a thing."

Sandra Perkins
Front Desk
Insurance Coordinator

Sandy has been with Dr. Beninato since 2002.  Before joining the staff, she was employed at Lucent Technologies in North Andover for 24 years.  It was a new experience for her; moving from electronics to healthcare.
Sandy has really enjoyed all of the patients she has worked with at Dr. Jean's office. It has been especially rewarding watching the children (and now the grandchildren!) of our long-standing patients growing up and now starting adult lives of their own.
