Rebecca - Medical Assistant
Rebecca is interested in a future career in medicine. She is studying for her Bachelors in Biology at Colorado Mesa University with the hope to go into orthopedic surgery. She graduated from Ponderosa High School in Parker, Colorado in 2022; she lettered in women’s varsity golf all four years. During her senior year of high school, she found a love and talent for ceramic art and hopes to pursue that more when she goes back to University.
Before Rebecca joined the team, she was a patient of Dr. Herzog back in 2018 and found a career in podiatry to be interesting. When she was offered to come as summer help and during breaks from school, she accepted the opportunity and has learned a lot about working in health care.

Celest - Front Office/ Medical Assistant
Raised in the heart of Georgia by her grandparents, Celest discovered her passion for healthcare at a young age while caring for my grandmother. At 16, she embarked on a new chapter in Colorado, where she continued to nurture her aspirations. In 2017, she graduated with distinction from PIMA Medical Institute with a perfect 4.0 GPA, laying a solid foundation for her career.
Since then, Celest has worn many hats in healthcare, from efficiently managing operations as an office manager for an optometrist to providing care in pediatrics and general practice. She has also gained valuable experience as a radiology scheduler and had the privilege of instructing future RMAs at PIMA Medical Institute, both in front and back office roles.
Recently, she expanded her skill set by earning a certificate in UX/UI design from The Flatirons School, where she graduated with a commendable 3.8 GPA. This achievement has opened new doors for her, as she eagerly looks forward to transitioning into the dynamic field of UX/UI design later down the road.
Beyond her professional endeavors, her heart is set on living by the beach—a dream that fuels my drive and ambition. Music has been a constant passion; she played the flute for nine years and briefly immersed myself in marching band percussion. Currently, she is embracing the challenge of learning the violin as well as American Sign Language (ASL). In her downtime you'll find her either playing video games, at concerts, or enjoying quality time with friends, savoring life's vibrant experiences to the fullest.
