Acne is a common – and treatable – skin condition that occurs when pores become clogged, resulting in whiteheads, blackheads, cysts or red bumps. We treat them all – fast!
Actinic Keratosis
A rough, scaly patch, bump or reddish spot on areas of the skin often exposed to the sun. If untreated, it can develop into a skin cancer called squamous cell carcinoma.
Dandruff
Dandruff is typically a result of too much oil on your scalp and an overgrowth of yeast called Malassezia. Persistent cases can require prescription shampoo or medication.
Rosacea Treatment
Rosacea is common skin condition that causes redness and bumps, typically on the face. While rosacea has no cure, we can help control flare ups and treat your discomfort.
Seborrheic Dermatitis
Seborrheic dermatitis causes scaly patches of inflamed skin, most typically seen on the scalp. While there isn't a cure, we offer treatment to lessen and/or clear your rash.
Skin Cancer Screenings
Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S. Regular screenings with your dermatologist find cancer earlier, minimizing risk of spread. Schedule your annual exam now!
I believe dermatologic care is about far more than treating the skin; it is about caring for the whole person. As a nurse practitioner, I strive to meet every patient with compassion, empathy, and genuine curiosity about their story. Everyone deserves care that is thoughtful, personalized, and rooted in respect for their unique needs. When patients feel heard, understood, and valued, trust grows and healing becomes possible. My hope is that every person who walks through the door leaves not only with expert care, but with the feeling that they were truly seen, deeply listened to, and cared for with intention.
