I am a US-trained, board-certified dermatologist with 6 years of advanced autoimmune training at the Ivy League University of Pennsylvania (UPenn). I always look beyond the skin, focusing on the underlying systemic factors that can influence dermatologic conditions. I have extensive experience in diagnosing and managing complex dermatologic conditions, particularly autoimmune and inflammatory skin diseases. I earned my 7-year accelerated medical degree from the University of the Philippines College of Medicine, where I also completed my residency in dermatology. Additionally, I hold certifications from the Chulalongkorn University Photodermatology Unit in Thailand and the International Psoriasis Council, further attesting to my expertise, especially in psoriasis management. My specialization includes conditions such as acne, psoriasis, eczema, lupus, dermatomyositis, vasculitis, skin fibrosis, and blistering diseases. I am committed to providing advanced, evidence-based care while prioritizing the health and well-being of my patients.
