About Me

I consider clinical dermatology to be fun and rewarding. The privilege of talking and interacting with patients is by far the best part of the field.

I am a general dermatologist interested in a broad range of dermatology but with expertise in treatment of skin cancers including MOHS surgery. For more than 20 years, MOHS for me has been a gratifying surgical technique to remove skin cancer in crucial cosmetic areas with high likelihood of cure. My background first in internal medicine and then dermatology trigged an interest in how underlying disease can manifest in the skin. Since their introduction, I have prescribed biologics for treatment of psoriasis and related rheumatologic disease. Witnessing the response of these individuals to biologics has been a professional joy.

I’m pretty much a Pennsylvania person in that I grew up in York, attended Franklin & Marshall in Lancaster and received my MD and internal medicine certification from Hershey Penn State. My only foray out of state was at Brown University for my certification in dermatology.

Outside the office, my time is largely occupied by family with my wife, my mother, 3 kids and 7 grandkids. My family admittedly loves the Jersey shore (with sun protection, of course).

I came in to see the doctor about a new growth, that needed checking out. All was good. The doctor and his Pa checked the rest of my torso, arms and head. They asked questions, and recommended a daily over the counter cream for age related bruising on my arms. I was very pleased with the doctor, PA and the clerk. They make a very good team.
