About Me

As a dermatologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I see patients whose skin diseases and concerns range from simple to complex, including patients with autoimmune diseases.

I’m very invested in my patients and their health – when I’m in the room with a patient, it’s just me and them. Nothing is more important than focusing on their concerns and conditions while working together with them to generate a plan of care.

In my general dermatology clinics, I treat all ages and conditions, with procedures including full body skin checks, mole checks, acne management and lesion removal. I also co-direct the Multidisciplinary Rheumatology-Dermatology clinic at Ohio State Outpatient Care New Albany, the first and only clinic of its kind in central Ohio. In this clinic, we offer patients with autoimmune skin diseases access to both rheumatology and dermatology in one place, along with the latest advances in diagnostics and therapeutics. I work closely with a rheumatologist to manage patients with connective tissue and autoimmune diseases, including psoriasis, lupus, dermatomyositis, morphea, systemic sclerosis, vasculitis and sarcoidosis.

I also focus on inpatient dermatology, where I specialize in the management of complex medical diseases and severe to life-threatening skin eruptions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome, DRESS syndrome, skin infections and cancer treatment-related skin reactions.

Outside of my clinical duties, I am a physician informaticist at the Ohio State Wexner Medical Center, where I work with physicians and information technology specialists to optimize EMR use to improve patient outcomes.

Finally, I am passionate about providing care to underserved populations. I direct a free clinic through La Clinica Latina for Hispanic patients who are uninsured or underinsured, and for incarcerated individuals at Franklin Medical Center.

When I’m away from work, I like to spend time with my family, and I find joy in reading, running and gardening.
