How I fell in love with dermatology:

I was drawn to dermatology through my experiences caring for patients with advanced dermatologic disease and seeing the physical, social and psychological impact of their disease. Dermatology is a unique specialty that allows us to make individualized diagnoses and treatment plans based on visual patterns and diagnostic modalities. As a dermatologic surgeon, I feel privileged to provide personalized care to patients who are diagnosed with skin cancer and other dermatologic conditions.
