Martha Puentes
I was born in Colombia and came to the United States in 1987. Since then, I trained at Bryman College to be a Medical Assistant, which I really love and enjoy doing now for over two decades. I’ve been married for 33 years to a wonderful husband and have two children. My oldest son graduated from University of California Davis and my youngest son is at University of California Santa Cruz. I joined Dr. Carol Somersille’s practice in 2005. It has been a great experience being a partner in women’s lives.
