Meet Me Monday with Kate! 👋🏼

Kate is guaranteed to bring both skill and smiles to the exam room. Having studied in Australia, she combines international training with a down-to-earth, can-do attitude. She’s a hardworking technician with a sharp eye for detail—and a soft spot for good jokes. Whether she’s helping patients feel at ease or cracking a pun that gets the whole room laughing, Kate keeps things running smoothly and spirits lifted. She’s all heart—and we mean that in the best way.

Meet Me Monday with Elizabeth 👋🏼

If kindness had a face, it might just look like Elizabeth. Our unofficial clinic ray of sunshine, Elizabeth is often the first smile you see and the warm voice that makes you feel instantly at ease. With a heart as big as her to-do list, she’ll go out of her way to make sure every patient feels heard, cared for, and completely supported. Often described as a real-life Disney princess, Elizabeth radiates warmth, patience, and grace. She is always finding ways to lift others up with compassion and humility. She makes the world —and our front desk—a much better place.

Meet Me Monday with Emma! 👋🏼

When our team needed someone to step into a tough role, Emma didn’t just rise to the occasion—she ran with it. Formerly a teacher, Emma brings the same calm, capable energy, and kid-friendly charm to our front desk that she once brought to the classroom. She has a natural gift for making patients—especially the younger ones—feel understood, supported, and at ease. Emma never hesitates to take on new challenges. Whether it’s a tricky schedule, a full waiting room, or something totally out of left field, she shows up ready to help with a can-do attitude and a steady smile!

Meet me Monday 👋🏼

Originally from Ukraine, Valentyna brings warmth, grace, and a touch of playful sass to everything she does. With a background in nursing, she first joined our clinic as a technician, but her passion for patient care and love of aesthetics led her to our Spa Room, where she now specializes in IPL and RF treatments for our dry eye patients. Valentyna has quickly become a patient favorite, known not just for her skilled hands but for her kind heart, easy charm, and perfectly timed jokes. She has a special gift for connecting with everyone she meets, making every treatment feel like a visit with a trusted friend 🤍
