Hello, my name is Annette Noriega and I’ve been working as a Surgical Assistant for the last 4 years and happily employed at Community Hospital of Long Beach in the city of Long Beach, Ca. I assist in multiple types of surgeries including Plastic and Reconstruction, General, Orthopedics, Cysto, Hand and Foot and have some experience in GI and Cataract procedures. I also have the responsibilities of ordering sterile supplies, instrument trays and was the Eye Procedure Coordinator for a brief time.

Patient safety, sterility and team work are my priority and I take great pride in providing the highest standard of professionalism and service that I can. I feel I have a lot to offer your company and I’m looking forward hearing from you.
