About

Kathy Wright, R.N. has actively practiced in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1982 as a Registered Nurse. Her experience is extensive and multidimensional. After she earned her degree in nursing, she worked in the critical care units of Sequoia Hospital for 2 years. In 1985, she joined the plastic surgery practice of Jaroy Weber M.D., launching her plastic surgery nursing career. Her association with Dr. Weber enabled her to become intimately involved in patient care as an R.N. First Assistant in the operating room and as a clinical office nurse. This 3- year position prepared her for the transition to the operating room at Sequoia Hospital.
Kathy knows challenge and success. Her career path has included assisting the development of a medical start-up company, obtaining a patent for an orthopedic medical device, and extensive traveling to educate healthcare professionals about her innovations. In 1992, she joined Donald Laub, M.D., a prestigious plastic surgeon in Palo Alto. With Dr. Laub, Kathy gained her skincare expertise as a collagen and Botox injection specialist, counseling patients in the Obagi Skin Fitness Program and performing Jessner’s TCA Peels. Her training in permanent make-up tattooing was with Sally Hayes of Scottsdale, Arizona. Kathy’s advanced training came from Alexis Lawson, founder of the worldwide Softlab method.
