Esther Mondragon serves as the enabling services manager for our perinatal program and also works as a team nurse. Esther completed nursing school at Portland Community College in 2010. She was born in Mexico City but grew up in The Dalles, where she still lives today. Esther has been drawn to working at One Community health because she is passionate about community health, supporting our diverse patient population, and, of course, practicing perinatal care and delivering high-quality, personable services and solutions.

Delfina Reyes has worked for One Community Health’s perinatal program since 2005. She provides education and support to pregnant women and women who have recently had a baby. She enjoys working with pregnant women and helping them get the care and services they need, everything from prenatal education to dental exams and even our behavioral health services. Delfina has witnessed how our health promotion programs have made a dramatic difference in the lives of our patients over the years. Patients are often more relaxed about talking to the community health workers than they are talking to their provider, and the community health workers have the opportunity to give them that extra care and attention.

Evaristo Romero has worked for One Community Health’s Salud program since 2003. He loves the opportunity to teach patients and make a difference in their disease management. He has recently gained new skills in helping people manage their weight in a healthy way and has been very popular in that role. He teaches classes and provides one-on-one support for many patients. As someone who long ago worked in the orchards and saw the benefit of health of wellness, he knows that health promotion programs enable the clinic to reach many more people in ways that are effective for conveying health information and support. Over the years, Evaristo has created valuable connections with our local patients as well as the returning migrant farmworkers we serve both at orchards and in special health clinics throughout the summer months.
