Congratulations to SkinCare Physicians’ Dr. Jeffrey Sobell for being selected as Speaker of the Day by the over 700 dermatologists in attendance at the 2016 Fall Clinical Dermatology Conference, last weekend in Las Vegas.
Dr. Sobell’s talk was entitled Incorporating Biologics into Clinical Practice. It gave a very practical overview of the indications in dermatology for biologic treatments (moderate to severe psoriasis and moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa). Additionally, his lecture covered how to select an appropriate biologic for a specific individual patient, and how to start and manage a patient while on therapy.
The 2016 Fall Clinical Dermatology Conference aimed to provide practicing dermatologists with a comprehensive update on the diagnosis and treatment on a variety of conditions that face these physicians on a daily basis.
Dr. Lee visiting Brattle Book Shop & trying new eateries
After many years in the Deep South, Dr. Nicole Lee has made her way back north to join us at SkinCare Physicians as one of our talented cosmetic procedural fellows. She is excited and prepared for a snowy Boston winter! Born in England and raised in Pennsylvania, Nicole spent much of her youth moving up and down the east coast for schooling. She obtained her undergraduate degree at Georgetown University before heading down south where she completed her medical education at the University of North Carolina and dermatology residency at the University of Alabama. Outside of work, Nicole is often found exploring the city of Boston as well as trying new eateries, rummaging through old books and prints at Brattle Book Shop, planning her next great escape, and attempting to fulfill a fantastical dream of becoming a sommelier.
As part of SkinCare Physicians’ product video series, a member of our clinical team, Cheryl, shares her favorite skincare product, TNS Recovery Complex by SkinMedica. She used to have many creams in her daily skincare regimen, but now mainly applies TNS Recovery Complex because it actually works! Watch her explain why.
Stay tuned for our next employee’s product favorite video coming in November.
Dr. Omer Ibrahim is one of this year’s talented Cosmetic and Laser Surgery fellows at SkinCare Physicians. Omer was born in the Middle East, where he spent the first 14 years of his life, but he has been on the go ever since moving to the US. He has lived in Cincinnati, Cleveland, New Haven, New York, Chicago, and now Boston. After graduating from the University of Cincinnati, Omer went on to get his medical degree from Yale University. Later, he completed his residency in dermatology at Cleveland Clinic. Outside of work, Omer enjoys discovering all that Cambridge and Boston have to offer. You will find him taking classical Indian dance classes at a local studio (here in the photo), working up a sweat at the gym, trying new restaurants, or at home watching reality TV. After his fellowship, Omer hopes to lead a productive career in the clinical and research worlds.
SkinCare Physicians’ Dr. Jeff Dover was invited to join a select group of expert physicians and surgeons from the U.S. to participate in a scientific advisory board meeting at Allergan’s world headquarters in Westport, Ireland. Allergan, the maker of BOTOX, and Juvéderm fillers, hosted a small group of physicians for a few days in the west of Ireland to get their input in the rapidly growing market for cosmetic dermatology.
SkinCare Physicians is excited to launch a video series featuring our employees’ favorite skincare products. Each month one of our employees will share his/her favorite product from our SkinCare Boutique. Why? Because they love to use skincare products that actually work! This month, Marissa, a patient representative, explains why her favorite skincare product is C E Ferulic from SkinCeuticals.

SkinCare Physicians’ Dr. Tom Rohrer was one of the renowned international guest speakers at The Dermatological Society of South Africa’s Annual Congress that was held in Cape Town in late August. He gave lectures on the more recent advances in lasers and aesthetic procedures. The meeting catered to the needs of dermatologists in private practice in South Africa and neighboring countries.
Dr. Kenneth Arndt was recently the G. Robert Baler Visiting Professor at the Boston University Department of Dermatology and delivered the G. Robert Baler Visiting Professor lecture. He was introduced by Dr. Tania Phillips.
This memorial lectureship was established by Dr. Baler’s family in recognition of his many contributions and lifetime involvement and devotion to the Boston University Department of Dermatology. Dr. Baler has been remembered “for his exceptional dedication to teaching the next generation of dermatologists, his outstanding clinical skills and dedication to his patients, and his warm and upbeat personality. He was a kind and gentle physician who was quick with a smile and cared deeply about his profession, his community, and above all his family”. Six years ago Dr. Baler delivered the first Baler lecture, which he titled My Six Decades in Dermatology. In remembrance of Dr. Baler and appreciation for his previous presentation, Dr. Arndt chose the same title for this talk, although his career in dermatology is still several years short of that landmark.
Dr. Arndt spoke about many of the areas within dermatology in which he has been involved and for which he is well known and widely appreciated. These included his involvement in publishing textbooks and medical journals, the evolution and use of lasers in medicine and dermatology, his two decade editorship of the Archives of Dermatology, information overload in medicine and dermatology, the dramatic changes in medicine and dermatology which evolved over his career, as well as his transition from a full-time academic career as Professor of Dermatology at Harvard Medical School and Chairman of the Department at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center to the establishment with colleagues of the academic private practice SkinCare Physicians. In the audience attending this talk were medical staff, residents, fellows and trainees from the Boston University Department, fellows from SkinCare Physicians, and guests. Following his hour-long address Dr. Arndt then spent the following hour with further discussion and interaction with residents and trainees from the Boston University Program and discussed multiple areas within the specialty.
SkinCare Physicians’ Dr. Thomas Rohrer did a “media tour” last week with Hall-of-Fame baseball player, Mike Schmidt, talking to multiple radio stations around the country about skin cancer prevention and detection. Mike Schmidt was diagnosed with melanoma in 2012 and wanted to share his story to raise awareness about the danger of sun exposure, especially among young people playing sports. The tour was organized with the help of the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) and had a huge reach.
Help us spread the word about sun safety. Listen to one of their interviews on Examiner.com and share it: http://www.examiner.com/article/interview-with-mike-schmidt.
