Overview

I enjoy the field of dermatology because skin, hair and nails provide a window to a patient's overall health. They can reveal undetected systemic medical problems. I work with a variety of patients, from children to the elderly, covering all aspects of general dermatology. One of my special interests is treating and preventing skin cancers. I spend time educating patients, checking for problems and removing skin cancers. I like the mix of medical and surgical skills required in dermatology. When I meet with patients, I strive to make them feel at ease so they can be honest and open about their concerns. I encourage patients to ask questions so they can be involved in the decision-making process for their treatments. I love good teamwork and enjoy interacting with my nursing staff and other physicians. Outside of my practice, I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I'm married with two young children.

As a dermatologist specializing in contact dermatitis, I enjoy seeing patients of all backgrounds and ages to try to help them learn more about their rashes through patch testing. My goal is to make each patient’s patch test experience a positive one and to help them make any necessary lifestyle changes based on the results of the testing.
