I grew up in Staten Island with one older brother and two great parents. I learned a lot about compassion and what it is like to help others from them. I went on to college at the University of Stony Brook in Long Island. From there I entered the Sisters of Charity Medical Center Physician Assistant Program and graduated in 2000. I then joined a growing Dermatology practice and have been practicing and treating skin conditions ever since.
I started as a Physician Assistant in July of 2000. After graduation I began my career in Dermatology and have not looked back. I love the practice of Dermatology for so many reasons. Dermatology gives me the opportunity to connect with my patients and help them visibly see their problems go away. It is rewarding because I can instantly make a difference and treat the ‘patient’ not just a disease or a test result. Making a difference is what matters most, no matter how small that difference may appear to be.
Today, when I am not treating my patients I enjoy spending time with my beautiful wife and two wonderful daughters.

My mission is to provide you with personalized, high-quality care. I am dedicated to improving and maintaining your health through preventative care and treating chronic diseases.
I offer a broad array of services geared to address today’s most common skin conditions. My experience has taught me there is no such thing as one-size-fits-all cure, so I never use a one-size-fits-all approach to your diagnosis or treatment.
My goal is to improve and maintain your overall skin health and to empower you with an understanding of your condition and wellness plan.
What is a PA? A Physician Assistant (PA) is a healthcare professional who is licensed by the state to practice medicine as part of a team with the sponsorship of a physician. In Dermatology they perform total body exams for skin cancer surveillance and perform biopsies on suspicious lesions to check for skin cancer. They also can do many minor surgical procedures to remove skin cancers and non-cancerous growths when necessary. They evaluate, treat and manage many dermatologic conditions including acne, eczema, psoriasis, and warts, just to name a few.
I offer my patients a comprehensive skin exam and management plan for whatever issue they may need for their skin.
In this section I will discuss various skin conditions and different product recommendations. Make sure you check back often to see what I am going to discuss next. And you can also follow me by clicking below

We have been lucky with mild weather this fall season so far; however, the air is cooler and drier and that brings problems for many people's skin. This is a time when moisturizing should be the primary focus of your skin care. I always tell my patients to keep things simple when considering skin care. Gentle cleansers and oil free moisturizer for the face are all you really need. I also like products such as Dove Soap, or brands such as CeraVe, Cetaphil, Neutrogena, Aveeno, Eucerin and LaRoche Posay to name a few. You do not need a lot of products to complicate your routine. There is information overload on social media, especially in places like TikTok and Instagram. Keep in mind many of these "influencers" have an agenda to push certain products and they often promote a multi-step routine which can be time consuming, financially draining, and not healthy for your skin. Young people in particular are vulnerable targets and do not need to be using all these "serums" and products they are being told to use. Keep it simple with a basic cleanser, gentle moisturizer and of course sunscreen.

May is Melanoma awareness month. Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer and one that if not caught early can spread to other parts of the body. Like all cancers, early detection is the most important aspect of diagnosis and treatment. If you think something looks odd or out of place on your skin do not wait, get it checked out as soon as you can. This is a great time to think about your annual skin check too. Even if you have not noticed something looking different you should always have a properly trained clinician examine your skin. Schedule your skin exam now! And always wear sun protection. The higher the SPF the better.
