Tina C.

Clinic Assistant

Tina joined Edina Plastic Surgery in 2026 as a Clinic Assistant, bringing with her a strong clinical foundation, a passion for aesthetics, and a genuine dedication to patient care. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Biology with honors from the University of Minnesota and graduated high school with her associate degree while earning Dean’s List recognition, an early reflection of her commitment to excellence and lifelong learning.

Tina’s interest in healthcare was shaped through her experience working in a Level I trauma center in St. Paul, where she learned to thrive in fast-paced, high-acuity environments that demanded teamwork, precision, and compassion. While this experience built her clinical confidence, she found her true passion in plastic surgery and aesthetics, an industry that uniquely blends science and artistry while making a meaningful impact on patients’ confidence and self-image. In her role at Edina Plastic Surgery, Tina appreciates the opportunity to combine her love of dynamic medicine with a patient-first, detail-driven approach to care.
Known for her warm, approachable demeanor and meticulous attention to detail, Tina is committed to helping patients feel comfortable, supported, and truly cared for at every step of their journey. She believes deeply in treating every patient the way she would want to be treated herself—with respect, empathy, honesty, and attentive listening. For Tina, taking the time to ensure patients feel heard and reassured is just as important as the clinical experience itself.

Tina is proud to be part of the Edina Plastic Surgery team, where she values the shared passion, expertise, and genuine commitment to delivering an exceptional patient experience. She believes the practice stands apart for its welcoming, personalized environment, one that feels thoughtful and supportive rather than clinical or intimidating.

Outside of work, Tina enjoys staying active and prioritizing wellness. She has a passion for fitness, enjoys experimenting with juicing and wellness recipes, and regularly listens to podcasts focused on health, personal growth, and self-improvement. Guided by her personal mantra,“Strive to become 1% better each day, while finding something to be grateful for in every moment,” Tina brings positivity, purpose, and continuous growth into both her professional and personal life.
