Janet Murray

Janet was born in Charleston, West Virginia. She is one of four siblings. She says she was blessed with parents who had an excellent work ethic and an excellent sense of humor. They worked us like crazy -- and then laughed about it! But mainly they taught her that "Character is who you are when no one else is watching". That example has served her well in her life and has guided her in striving for excellence.

After attending Frostburg State University in Maryland Janet worked as a dental assistant for six years. She enjoyed assisting the dentist, and became interested in being more involved with the patient's treatment. That interest led her to a decision to go back to college. Janet received an Associates of Science in Dental Hygiene from West Liberty College.

She moved to Saint Augustine, Florida in 1986, where she has been working for a local general dentist and a local periodontist. She enjoys working with the patients, and she likes the family atmosphere shared with the other staff members. Janet is excited to be a member of the Jacksonville Periodontics and Implant Dentistry in Jacksonville, Florida. She can see that Dr. Young leads his team to high standards and ensures that education and quality of care is the rule and never the exception.

Janet's free time is spent enjoying her dog, Amber. She loves animals and spends time at the St. Johns Veterinary Clinic.

Janet enjoys traveling, scuba diving, creating computer graphics, web design, and video editing. She recently fulfilled a personal goal of writing and illustrating a children's book about the tooth fairy, "So, Where Do All the Baby Teeth Go?"
