I started working with Dr. Mani in 2011 for about a year and six month after my husband and I moved out of the state to live in Germany for almost two years. I grew up in Germany and finished all my schooling in Duisburg. I've also worked for a couple of doctor's offices there. Luckily, I got another position with Dr. Mani after I moved back to California in 2014. I love being in the medical field and enjoy working in Dr. Mani's office.

  • Medical Assistant
I started working for Dr. Mani shortly after receiving my Medical Assistant Certificate. I have learned so much in the little time I have been here. Dr. Mani is very informative and likes to have all of her staff become knowledgeable of every procedure in the office. I am currently going to school to achieve my BSN, and believe where I am at is a good start.
