The Journey
My journey into aesthetic medicine commenced during my family medicine residency, where I developed a interest in dermatology while addressing various skin conditions. Although I initially contemplated a dermatology residency, I ultimately opted to integrate my family medicine training with aesthetic medicine. I undertook foundational training in aesthetics prior to completing my residency; however, the demands of my practice at that time limited my ability to offer these services. The COVID pandemic reignited my passion for aesthetic medicine, prompting me to engage in extensive research, education, and training to become a board certified specialist in the field. In 2021, I established Rejuvenation Medical Spa, motivated by a commitment to deliver evidence-based rejuvenation treatments to the Brookings community and its surroundings, leveraging my expertise and dedication.
