The
office procedures, intake, testing, etc. is performed by our back office staff.
Brenda is capable of doing most of our back
office evaluations. She has been in the
practice for over 27 years, which makes her our most experienced employee Brenda actually
started with the Allergy and Immunology practice prior to Dr. Kaslow's
employment in 1989 and stayed with us with our subsequent assumption of the practicee while we were based in Garden Grove. Presently she work two days a week.
Natalie joined our office in May 2009 and already
had made a big impact. As an LVN, Natalie is very proficient in drawing blood, IV
infusions, etc. as well as performing all of the other procedures including
EKGs, urinalysis, body measurements, body composition (fat/water/muscle),
saliva challenges, DPA, HRV, EIS, thermography, etc. She works full-time Mondays, Tuesdays,
Thursdays, and Fridays. Most find her
efficient and easy to talk to.
Sandy has been a long time contributor to
our office. Because she has all of the
front and back office skills, she splits her time between the back office responsibilities
and the Nutritional Pharmacy. Sandy works the two days
a week that Brenda is out.
