Healthcare innovation
A multidisciplinary perspective on skin health, procedural excellence, patient communication, and the infrastructure behind modern care.
Clear, evidence-informed thinking across inflammatory, infectious, autoimmune, hair, nail, and complex dermatologic disease.
Training in margin-controlled skin cancer surgery, reconstruction, pathology, and the decisions that shape safe, tissue-sparing care.
