Jeimy Duenas

Front Office Manager

I was born in Guatemala City and moved to the United States when I was 7 years old. I have a wonderful husband and a terrific son!  I went to school for business management, however I decided that was not for me. I then went into the hospitality industry for 20+ years and learned so much. My sister has always wanted me to get into the medical field and after I was diagnosed with breast cancer I decided to follow in her footsteps. I love being creative and spending time with my family!

I then headed towards a career in research at Loma Linda University focusing on Perinatal Biology working under my grandfather Dr. Longo. I was surrounded by students from LLU which peaked my interest in helping others and then decided to apply to PTA school. I was accepted and graduated from Loma Linda University with an associate's in Allied Health Sciences. I passed boards first time and immediately went into a career in Physical Therapy initially working in Home Health and traveling out of town to Blythe to work each week, then returning home to work at a SNF on the weekends.
