Mary
Fishenfeld, R.N., joins
Helton Skin & Laser Institute as a Registered
Nurse Aesthetic Laser Specialist. After receiving
her nursing degree from Riverside City College
in 1978, Mary began work in California caring
for pre and post-operative surgery patients.
She subsequently relocated to New York City and
was employed at both St. Luke's Roosevelt
Medical Center and Beth Israel Medical Center.
Upon her return to the West Coast in the late
80s, Mary had the opportunity to specialize in
Burn Care at the Michael Jackson Burn Unit at
Brotman Medical Center in Culver City, CA. It
was here that she was able to train with some
of the top plastic surgeons in Los Angeles. Mary
found that helping patients to improve their
skin in extreme conditions ignited a true passion
for skin care on every level. She then decided
to focus her education on the physical and mental
aspects of the patient experience by majoring
in Psychology at California State University,
Dominguez Hills. Mary was certified as an
Aesthetic Laser Specialist by the Eclectic Skin
Institute (now Esthetic Skin Institute, Inc.)
in 2003 and is thrilled to have become a part
of our team! |
