About Me
With deep appreciation for the profound impact of skin-related concerns on physical and emotional health, I am committed to alleviating patients鈥 discomfort and fostering their self-assurance through dermatologic care.
Early in my career, inspired by nurturing mentors, I began exploring the intersection of dermatology and cancer. This led to pioneering work in the realm of oncodermatology鈥攖he care of people with dermatologic conditions that arise during or after cancer treatment, such as chemotherapy, radiation, or immunotherapy. Over more than two decades, I have collaborated with colleagues and institutions globally, working to establish oncodermatology programs that reach others.
In my practice, I see people coping with hair, skin, or nail side effects during or after cancer treatment. From itching to hair loss, the symptoms my patients experience may potentially hinder crucial cancer therapies.
Specializing in diagnosing and treating complex cancer-related dermatologic issues, I conduct biopsies and use advanced tools like dermoscopy and photography for comprehensive assessments. By offering personalized, targeted treatments, I strive to provide prompt relief, ensuring that my patients feel supported.
Having earned recognition over the past decade in Castle Connolly鈥檚 esteemed 鈥淭op Doctors鈥 series for the New York metro area, I remain dedicated to providing excellent patient care as well as bridging unmet healthcare needs. Drawing on my Caribbean heritage, the core of my mission remains focused on expanding access to care and optimizing patient outcomes through personalized and compassionate treatment approaches.
