I am an academic dermatologist with a passion for incorporating technology to help improve patient outcomes. Clinically, I treat a wide array of dermatologic issues ranging from acne, and rosacea to more complex skin cancers. I do my utmost to make sure all my patients feel like they can have open discussion with me about their clinical issues by actively listening.





Professionally, I am also happy to serve as the Chief Medical Information Officer for the faculy practice plan. This allows me to marry my two passions technology, and clinical medicine to improve patient outcomes for all patients seen by USF Health providers. We are at a new age where utilizing data, and medical knowledge can help clinicians recognize areas where we can improve care. One example of this is in through the early detection of cancer. In dermatology we are not just focused on continually excising skin cancers; we want to equip our patients to be actively looking whilst at home for signs of anything that could develop into cancer outside of their annual visits.





I would be honored to take care of your dermatologic needs.
