She also worked with the university faculty practice in diagnosing and treating patients with challenging oral diseases.

"Dr. Cordell will be a great addition to our faculty," said Dr. Henry Gremillion, LSUSD dean. She brings outstanding experience as a teacher and as a diagnostician in microscopic pathology. We are very fortunate to have someone of her caliber and I believe the dental community will enjoy working with her."
