Our Team

Diana Ohanesian
Front Office Administrator and Treatment Coordinator

Diana has been a smiling face in Dr. Azling’s front office since 1997. She started her career in dentistry as an assistant in 1991 and after a few years, she realized she preferred working in the front office. Providing outstanding customer service with compassion is what Diana loves most about her job, and she especially enjoys helping the fearful patient by making them feel comfortable. Diana is a major Angels baseball fan and in her free time, she enjoys listening to country music, camping, and taking river trips with her husband, Mike, and son, Timothy. Her favorite holidays are Halloween and 4th of July.

Jenny Nauta
Front Office Receptionist and Hygiene Coordinator

Jenny was born in Guam and moved to Southern California as a 15 year-old girl. She started at Dr. Azling’s office in 2007 as a part-time file clerk and quickly proved herself as a hard worker and strong team player, earning herself a full-time front office position in a very short time. She loves the friendship and camaraderie she feels at Dr. Azling’s office, and it’s her friendly smile that patients first see when walking in the door. Jenny is proud of her husband, Ken, who has served in the US Marine Corps since 1990. Although he is frequently away on tours for extended periods of time, Jenny remains positive and upbeat for her two college-age children, Kenny and Marissa. She enjoys traveling and her favorite memories are from Okinawa (Japan), Perth (Australia), and Paris (France).

Kelly Drinkwine
Registered Dental Hygienist

Kelly was inspired by a wonderful dentist she had growing up and got into the field by first becoming a registered dental assistant and then a registered dental hygienist. Kelly graduated from USC with a BS in Dental Hygiene in 1998 and has been on Dr. Azling’s hygiene team since April 2000. An interesting fact about Kelly is that she enjoys collecting antique dental tools, books, products, and memorabilia--but don’t worry, none are used in our office! She also enjoys spending time with her son, Cameron, and says that the beach is her happy place. Kelly’s favorite quote is “Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.”

Feli Ruth Ramirez
Registered Dental Assistant

Feli gives credit for her interest in dentistry to growing up with a crooked cuspid tooth that stuck out every time she smiled. As evident from her beautiful smile, Feli’s crooked tooth is gone, but her passion for helping patients achieve healthy smiles is alive and well. Feli has been a cherished assistant for Dr. Azling since February 2001, and her dedication and proficiency has led her to become the back office team leader as well as our OSHA Compliance Coordinator. Feli’s motto is “Be true to yourself, help others, make each day your masterpiece, make friendship a fine art, and give thanks for your blessings every day.”
