Dr. Redmond's Team
Lindsay
Treatment Coordinator
I joined the Redmond Orthodontics team in 1998 and I am the Treatment Coordinator. I truly love all aspects of my job- meeting and getting to know all our new patients, helping them on their way to a smile that they have always wanted and deserve, and seeing them smile for the first time after they get their braces off! Every day is incredibly fun and rewarding here at John Redmond Orthodontics. In my free time I enjoy camping, hiking and if I am not at work, I am at Lasuen playing beach volleyball! I look forward to meeting you and helping you with all your orthodontic needs!
Michele
Scheduling Coordinator and Social Media
In the summer of 2018, I walked into the office with my son for his routine
orthodontic visit during his second phase of braces. Six weeks later, I was hired
and joined the most terrific team! I am married to my husband Jon and we live in
San Clemente with our 3 beautiful children. Working at John Redmond
Orthodontics is like walking onto the set of CHEERS. Everyone is so friendly and
welcoming. As a former patient of Dr. John’s father back in the late 80’s I feel
right at home here…you will find me facilitating Instagram/Facebook, & at the
front office as a scheduling coordinator.
Desiree
Financial Coordinator
I have worked for the Redmond organization since 1999. Starting as a chairside RDA I was able to learn the function of orthodontics from the leaders in the industry. Even though I may be behind the scenes now as the Financial and Insurance Coordinator at John Redmond Orthodontics, my goal is to facilitate the financial and possible insurance aspect of our patient’s orthodontic care. I work with insurance companies to make sure our patients are getting the most out of their benefits, answer insurance questions, and assist patients and their families with financial arrangements. I strive to help patients learn about our affordable options that allow a lifetime of confidence to our patients by improving their smile.
My favorite pastime is surfing with my husband and two daughters, as well as walking the beach trail and sea glassing.

Ilse
RDA
I have been an RDA since 2011 and have been working with Dr. John Redmond since 2017. I primarily assist Dr. John in all facets of various orthodontic procedures learning as much as I can along the way from one of the best in the field. Aside from furthering my knowledge in this industry, my favorite part of working here is being a part of a great team that helps transform people’s smiles into something they are proud to display.
Krista
RDA, COA
I have been working for Dr. John since 2018 as an RDA and Certified Orthodontic Assistant. I was a dental assistant for many years in a general dentistry office but was led to move to Orthodontics after I fell in love with the office and his team. My three daughters were Dr. John’s patients and during the visits to the office I quickly realized that Orthodontics was my calling. I love my job and could not ask for a better work family. My goal is to make every patient that comes into our office young or old, feel like family and to comfort them through their treatment. In my free time I enjoy baking, walking the beach trail and doing CrossFit. I look forward to many years of helping patients to health and happiness through Orthodontics.
Jadyn
DA - Sterilization and X-Ray Technician
I was raised in San Clemente and received my braces from Dr. John in middle school. Before graduating from San Clemente High School, I started working for Dr. John when I was 17 years old and have loved every minute of being here! At the office, you can usually find me taking photos or x-rays and outside of the office I am usually doing volunteer work in the community, getting coffee at a local coffee shop, or planning my next trip!
