Karen Halemanu – Office Manager
Hi, I’m Karen,
I have been with Dr. Greco for 11 rewarding years. Prior to that, I worked as retail operations manager for 26 out of 30 years for a chain of retail stores. They say that if you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life. I am proud to declare that for me. I feel fortunate and blessed to be part of a team that serves our referring offices and their patients with uncompromising care.
Terry – Front Office Coordinator – Accounting
I have been with Dr Greco since February 2020. Prior to that, I worked 30 years for a local clothing retailer and manufacturer as their wholesale credit manager. Married with two sons who are also married with two grandchildren as icing on the cake. I have been a volunteer leader with the Boy Scouts of America for over 30 years and Treasurer of Kalahikilola Congregational Church in Kohala. In my spare time, I enjoy exercising with the local “Insanity” workout group. I love to travel with my family, especially visiting the grandchildren. Our family Holiday gatherings are the best times spent together.
Sherese – Lead Surgical Assistant
Hi There,
I am Sherese – the Lead Surgical Assistant for Dr Joan Greco. I began my journey with Dr Greco and her practice in February 2019. I was given the opportunity to be trained as a surgical assistant. Prior to this, I did not have any dental /medical experience. I worked as a clerk and wanted more. Today, I am proud to be her Lead Assistant. The opportunities are endless. If you have the heart and desire, Dr Greco is willing to teach and expand your knowledge. I completed phlebotomy and anesthesia certifications which allows me to be more than just an assistant. I am grateful to have found a leader that continues to contribute to my knowledge and experience. This is truly a golden opportunity for me.
Kiarra Lincoln – Front Office Coordinator
My name is Kiarra, also known as Kiki. I have been working for Dr. Greco since 2022 and am grateful for the opportunity she has given me. Prior to working with Dr. Greco, I graduated with my Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration from UH Hilo and competed competitively for 4 years playing softball for their program. I have dedicated much time and effort toward softball and believe it contributes greatly to the person I am today. From a young age, I fell in love with the idea of helping those in my community through helping young children learn the game that I love. Sharing my knowledge and experiences and being able to make an impact on their lives is a reward I am lucky to have experienced so early. I am blessed to say I can continue to carry on that reward of helping others through my journey here with Dr. Greco.
