Andrea is passionate about all things skin-care and has a special interest and knowledge in the field of integrative/ holistic dermatology. She has completed integrative dermatology training for several chronic conditions including acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea and anti-aging. Andrea’s niche in practicing dermatology is honoring the uniqueness of each of her patients, customizing treatment and working to improve or treat the root cause when possible. Active listening and patient education is at the heart of her practice.

She is skilled in performing dermatologic procedures including biopsies, electrodesiccation and curettage, cryotherapy, platelet-rich plasma, skin tag removal and Botox and will soon be offering more cosmetic procedures as she integrates into our practice.

A physician assistant (PA) is a nationally certified and state-licensed medical professional who practices medicine under the supervision of a physician. The scope of practice of a dermatologic PA includes conducting patient histories and physician exams, ordering and interpreting laboratory tests, diagnosing medical and dermatologic conditions, developing and implementing treatment plans, prescribing medications, performing procedures, assisting in surgery, and counseling on acute, chronic, and preventative health conditions.
