In Medicine Experience Counts
ARGERA is a unique working environment where the staff are like a family with different personalities all meshing together for the common goal of providing a fantastic service whilst enjoying their work.
And whist office skills may vary, ARGERA's staff are all beautiful people with warm generous hearts, who will do their very best to accommodate our patients needs.
All our staff are "down to earth" people who have their own varied interests outside work. At work, they all share an interest in ARGERA's functioning and personally partake in treatments so that they can provide an honest and experienced opinion when answering enquiries. All senior staff are the original employees from the first day the clinic opened its doors.

She completed her registered nursing degree in Perth in 1995 and has focused on the specialties of emergency medicine. Rita's advanced nursing skills served her well for her 8 years as a country nurse where she often worked unsupervised to save lives. Rita joined ARGERA in 2006. She has been hand trained by Dr Argie and learnt many of the nuances of cosmetic medicine to make her a truly skilled nurse injector and one of the best in Perth. Dr Argie chose Rita for her keen eye to detail, gentle hand, high intelligence level and her friendly caring nature. She is committed to standards and education, which sees her accompany our doctor on national conferences, to seminars and training events. And whilst Rita loves her work her true passion lies as a mother to her beautiful son.

Reception Manager - Maria
Maria's bubbly personality and desire to help you out will make your experience at ARGERA a positive one. Maria is highly knowledgable about our services and very organised. She is also our surgical patient liason, taking care of all their booking and adminsitrative needs. Her role is to ensure that all has gone well in treatments and to help with any concerns. She is the link between patient and doctor to ensure that the patient never feels alone or abandoned by the clinic. Dr Argie is often in demand by patients and as an educator of cosmetic medicine she cannot always follow up herself, so she often relies on her reception staff to be her liaison between patients and herself. Patients love her and so do we. Maria too is a mother of two very beautiful children.

Receptionist - Dale G.
Dale G. is our newest team member. Her weird sense of humour keeps us, and the patients, all in fits of laughter. Dale will go out her way to fit patients in and help them in finding out answers to their cosmetic questions. She is personally more conservative in her treatment choices and thus understands patients fears well. A good one to discuss such concerns with if your a prospective patient. Outside of work she loves horses and is a mother to two grown up boys. She too would like to be a garndmother!
It is important to know that all staff regularly undergoes quality assurance assessments and ongoing training to improve their knowledge and skills.
