In addition to her dental practice, Dr. Clarissa Wimbush served her church and community in many ways. Reluctant to retire even after fifty-one years, she continued to handle cases even after she sold her practice to Dr. Augustus A. Petticolas, Jr., who said of Dr. Wimbush, "She planted me as a seed in Lynchburg." Other local dentists mentored by Dr. Wimbush included Dr. Herman E. Thompson and Dr. Hubert S. Diuguid.
