Margaret My name is Margaret Guerreri and have been practicing Dental Hygiene for 11 years. I attended the Medical College of Virginia and graduated in 2005. I am a native of Charlottesville as well as my family and decided to start my profession here because of them. I have an older brother who is married with a daughter and also a twin brother. In July of 2005, I started out working full time for two different dentists. I continued full time until I had my son Emmit in 2012. After some time off, I decided to go back working part time. For the past year now, I have picked up some temporary jobs. Temping is what brought me to the office of Drs. Gilrain and Brooks. After a few months, it led to a permanent position on Wednesdays. Having the flexibility of only working part time gives me the opportunity to spend time out in the real world as well as with my own family. In February 2017, we welcomed our newest addition, daughter Annabelle. I love working for a welcoming and family oriented practice such as this one.
