She is recognized as a national leader in treating HS, and has presented at numerous meetings, published in peer-reviewed journals, and is currently co-authoring international HS treatment guidelines. Her training and prior experience provides a strong foundation not only in medicine and dermatology, but also in caring for patients from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds.
