Jessica Torres, Office Administrator

Since she was a little girl growing up in beautiful Southern California, Jessica was motivated by her passion to someday work in the medical field. With encouragement from her mother, she received her certification as a medical assistant and found herself in the field of dermatology purely by chance. Today, Jessica has more than 18 years of experience in this field. She has served the patients of Foothill Cosmetic for a decade, and we view her as a vital part of our team. Jessica enjoys being with her large family.

Monica Navarro, Office Manager

Monica is a native of Glendora, and enjoys her time in this area with her two dogs that seem to always be up to something. She attends church here and enjoys playing the clarinet, reading, hiking, and outings with friends and family. Monica has worked in dermatology since she was a senior in High School. Very quickly, she began applying what she learned at work into her daily routine, and it shows in her skin!

All three of our administrative staff have been with us since day one of Foothill Cosmetic Surgery Center and we could not be happier with their service.
