Dr. Megan O'brien
Overview
My passion for helping others and my interest in science led me to medicine. I believe in a team-based approach in caring for patients. I am committed to listening and working together with my patients to find an accurate diagnosis and evidence-based treatment plan that is right for them and their lifestyle. I am a general dermatologist and able to take care of all conditions of the skin, hair, and nails, but I have a specific interest in pigmented lesions (moles), melanoma, and melanoma prevention. I also have an interest in the diagnosis and treatment of other skin cancers. I enjoy teaching and am passionate about medical education and training a compassionate, committed, and competent next generation of doctors.
