The iTero scanner ensures a more accurate impression from the start, resulting in improved treatment and a more comfortable patient experience. Digital impression also gives you the ability to see an instant 3D simulation of what your teeth will look like after orthodontic treatment!

Sea View Pharmacy

DRS. EUGENE AND JENNIFER MEDLEY

An often overlooked but important healthcare connection to establish is a personal relationship with your neighborhood pharmacist. Experienced, independent pharmacists are an invaluable resource for parents, seniors, athletes, and anyone else who needs trusted medical information and consultations. Family-owned and operated for 40 years, Sea View Pharmacy in San Clemente has served the community through decades of sweeping changes in healthcare and will support the current generation of local families through the next.

Jerry Medley assumed ownership of Sea View in 1988 and can still be spotted behind the counter assisting patients. His son and business partner, Eugene, runs the day-to-day operations now, along with Eugene’s wife Jennifer (when she’s not chasing after three busy kids!). Eugene grew up hanging around the pharmacy, but he explored stints as an ocean lifeguard, working in animal husbandry with Siegfried and Roy, and teaching veterinary anatomy before obtaining a doctorate degree in pharmacy and joining his father. As a professional, Medley finds gratification in knowing his business caters to a particular niche in the marketplace. “We can devote more time to customer service than corporate-run stores,” he says, “As a compounding pharmacy, we can provide customized therapies that aren’t available commercially.”

“Pharmaceutical companies formulate medications and determine dosages based on a 180-pound Caucasian male,” Medley explains, “We work with physicians to customize treatments for people who don’t fit into that mold.” Babies with digestive issues, hormone replacement candidates, veterinary patients, and people with special dietary requirements—just to name a few—all benefit from a partnership between the doctor and pharmacist to determine the most effective treatment with the most appropriate dosage.

As San Clemente’s only independent pharmacy, Sea View is also the go-to source for all medical equipment and supplies—even hard to find products—from bandages and braces to compression garments and wheelchairs. The website provides a wealth of information as well, including drug profiles, healthy recipes, articles, and referrals. Check out  SeaViewPharmacy.com and take a peek, or better yet, stop by and introduce yourself!

Pediatric Dentistry

NHU Q. TRAN, DDS, APC

Dr. Nhu Q. Tran has been taking care of “sugar bugs” on kids’ teeth in San Clemente for more than a decade. Her number one goal is to provide optimal dental care, in a gentle and caring manner to all her patients. Dr. Tran enjoys treating the wide age range of patients who visit her pediatric dental practice, from tickling the teeth of infants and toddlers who visit her for their first check up and cleaning, to guiding a fearful teenager through a treatment, helping them overcome their dental fears. Whether a child is excited to have their teeth “counted and brushed” or they are nervous about seeing “Mr. Slurpy” and “Mr. Thirsty,” Dr. Tran and her team strive to provide every child with a fun and educational experience that they enjoy and look forward to each and every time.

A native of Southern California, Dr. Tran went to UC Berkeley for her undergraduate education, then relocated to the Midwest and attended Case Western Reserve University School of Dentistry in Cleveland, Ohio. Having graduated among the top of her class, she became a recipient of the Pierre Fauchard Scholarship, and earned a membership into the National Dental Honor Society, Omicron Kappa Upsilon. Following dental school, Dr. Tran returned to Southern California to pursue two years of additional post-doctorate training in pediatric dentistry, at the University of Southern California. After receiving her Advanced Pediatric Dental Certificate from USC, Dr. Tran pursued further advancement in her specialty by achieving the status of Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry.

Aside from taking care of her private patients, Dr. Tran gives back to her Trojan roots, by being a part of the USC Advanced Pediatric Dentistry Faculty since 2006.  Furthermore, she has spent the last five years as the Pediatric Dental Residency Director at the Children’s Dental Health Clinic at Miller Children’s Hospital, in Long Beach. Dr. Tran’s involvement in academia enables her to provide the most up-to-date and thorough treatment for her patients. She recently decided to step away from her role as director to spend more time with her family and her private practice.  So, whether you see Dr. Tran in the office or on the baseball field rooting on her boys, be sure to say hello!  And whether your child is 1 or 16, excited or nervous, healthy or have special health care needs, Dr. Tran and her team are trained and ready to provide the best care for your children.
