Our Staff
Our patients appreciate the supportive relationships our staff members build with them starting with their initial visits to Y Plastic Surgery. At our Alpharetta, Roswell, and Woodstock locations, you’ll see the same friendly faces and get personalized attention from each member of our team. Dr. Yalif’s boutique practice attracts patients from throughout the metro Atlanta region who are looking for an exceptionally qualified plastic surgeon offering the personalized care that big-city practices often can’t provide.
“Our team is like a small family,” says Dr. Yalif. “You will see the same faces and hear the same voices throughout your care here. We’re always available for patients, to help them both emotionally and physically.”
The Team
The staff at Y Plastic Surgery reflects Dr. Yalif’s own personable and professional approach to patient care. We want your experience to be a positive one from the first contact you have with our practice. That positive experience begins with these team members:
Jessica Johnson, Practice Administrator
Jessica is one of the original staff members of Y Plastic Surgery and is an Atlanta native. She graduated from the University of Georgia and lives in Roswell with her husband, Burl, and their 2 adorable little girls, Olivia and Madison.
“My favorite part of working with Dr. Yalif is being able to help our patients. Working with insurance to verify benefits and gain surgical approvals for our hand and reconstruction patients is very rewarding. I also enjoy helping people choose the right cosmetic procedures to build their self-esteem. It is so wonderful to see the before/after transformation stories. Finally, I have a passion for our breast reconstruction patients. These women are heroes to me and always put things into perspective. Their strength and perseverance make me a better person.”—Jessica
Outside the office, Jessica enjoys spending time with her family, beating her husband at fantasy football, and cheering on her Georgia Dawgs.
Rebecka Stenberg, Front Office Coordinator
Rebecka is originally from Minnesota and loves the Georgia sun. She’s a friendly, knowledgeable member of the Y Plastic Surgery team who also studies nutrition at Georgia State University.
“I love the staff at Y Plastic Surgery! Everyone is like family, and that’s how our patients get treated as well. It is so uplifting and exciting to walk through the entire experience with our patients and see their end results, many of which are life-changing. The added confidence that I see in our cosmetic patients is extremely rewarding.”—Rebecka
Speaking of family, Rebecka was raised on a lake in Minnesota with 6 brothers! That’s why she enjoys being outside as much as possible in her spare time, especially hiking the Georgia trails. When she’s not outside or at work, chances are you’ll find her reading.
We’d love to get to know you and help you look your best. Request a consultation using the online form to meet with Dr. Yalif, or call us directly at (404) 822-4402 and Rebecka or Jessica can help schedule an appointment.
Kelli Mattinson, Lead Patient Coordinator
Kelli is our lead patient coordinator. She was born in Florida, but has been in the Atlanta area for more than 40 years. She currently lives in Milton with her family. She has two teenage girls in high school, two adult children and three grandkids.
“I feel honored to work with such a talented surgeon as Dr. Yalif, and truly enjoy it. I’m fascinated with both the surgical and non-surgical procedures and am constantly learning something new. We really are a family at Y Plastic Surgery and enjoy working together to create a “concierge” type experience for all of our patients. It is very rewarding to work with patients throughout their journey and see them so happy with the results.” -Kelli
When out of the office you might find Kelli at the park with her grandkids, out hiking, or playing tennis or golf. Unless it’s football season; in which case she’ll be out cheering for the Dawgs!
