Nursing

	Annie   Welcome! Hello my name is Annie. I have been here at Dr Todd's office since June 2008. I am so excited to be apart of this wonderful team that does so many great things. I have been a Medical Assistant for a little over 12 years. I have been working in the medical field for about 17 years.   I am in the nursing department here at ABC and I also assist with IT issues and the website maintenance.   I thrive on the busy fast paced life and live for the serene comforts of the outdoors. I am a mother of 2 boys; 16 (going on 25) and 5, well its fun…no really it is like a backwards roller coaster ride. We have many animals; dogs, cats, fish and whatever the boys bring home. We enjoy four-wheeling, walking and riding bikes.   I am also a WLS patient #1430. I have lost 126lbs since 12/9/08.   I look forward to meeting each and every one of you.   Kristen   Hello, my name is Kristen I am one of the Medical Assistants in the office. I was a Lap Band patient three months before I became an employee. I love all the people I work with. There is never a dull moment around here!   I have was born and raised in Seward, AK and moved to the big city of Anchorage when I graduated from Seward High School in 2001. In my spare time I love to enjoy the fruits of Alaska. Camping and fishing are my favorites. I also have fun in the winter creating stained glass master pieces and I hope to learn how to ski/snowboard this winter.   I have a lovely husband, two great kidos and one dog. My husband of three years, Carlos works for the IBEW. Our son Justus is a fun loving, companionate nine year old foot ball player. And our four year old daughter Kaylee wants to be a princess/lady bug when she grows up. Rico is our two year old American Bulldog who had to have been fathered by Scooby Doo.  Life is good!!! See you soon, Kristen       Justin   Hi everyone, I'm Justin.  I am pretty new to the office, and am excited to be here.  I function as a surgical first assistant/surgical technician for Dr. Todd when he is in the operating room.  During office days, I mainly assist the nursing staff and fill in wherever else help is needed.   I was trained as a surgical technician in the United States Air Force and am currently a member of the Alaska Air National Guard, where I am waiting to go to school to be a Navigator.  I also hope to go to medical school some time in the near future.   I have lived in Alaska for a combined 10 years, and think it's great (despite this summer).   As I said before, I'm excited to be here and am honored to have the chance to get to know all of you when you visit the office, instead of just seeing you in the OR.   -Justin       Ashely Under Consrtuction ;)           Melissa Under Consrtuction ;)

	Lexie  Hi! My name is Lexie and I work for Dr. Todd. I had an Open RNY in November of 2003 and have lost around 160lbs. My life has changed so much since surgery. As you can see from my picture, I have added some great adventures to my new life.  There seems to be a whole new world of possibilities available to me now that I have lost weight. I love a new adventure!   I really enjoy working here and getting to see all of the new and familar faces.                                                                                                             Shawna I am the Lead Receptionist here at Alaska Bariatric Center.
