Professional
Background
I love my profession. It feels great to give care to patients who really need it. I’m glad to be with Kaiser Permanente because we offer a variety of specialty care services, so as doctors we can better coordinate care for our patients.
I am a member of the following professional organizations: the American Academy of Dermatology, American Society of Dermatological Surgery, and the American Society of Mohs Surgery. I have a clinical interest in skin cancer and cosmetic surgery.
On a personal note, when I’m not at work I enjoy spending time with my husband and son. I also enjoy traveling and swimming.
What You Can Expect From Me
Before undergoing surgery, you will have a consultation to have your situation reviewed. My specialty is Mohs and other surgeries that address dermatology issues. During a consultation, I will ask you questions about your condition, your medical history, and review any medications you might be on. It helps to bring me a list of your medications (including herbal supplements and over the counter medications). After I do this review, we discuss your treatment options.
