In 1984, as Director of the Medically Indigent Adult Program at San Bernardino County Hospital, Dr. Mateja helped to establish the first dental facility to care for medically indigent patients in the county.

Dr. Mateja opened her private practice in 1985, at the present location, to serve the residents of Rancho Cucamonga and surrounding communities.

An avid golfer, she can be found on the links on many Inland Empire courses. She also spends time in her garden, which is lovingly called "the forest", where she has Coconut Orchids, Staghorn Fern, Kangaroo Paws, and a family of kittens that she “adopted” when she found them huddled in the shrimp plants
