Medical Dermatology

The skin is an incredible organ. It is your first line of defense against disease, protects your other organs, warms you up and cools you down, and sends messages about how healthy you are inside. Dermatologists are expert medical doctors and skin surgeons with the unique skills and experience to offer the best care for the organ that cares for you.

Dr. Yavari has also passed the “Fellowship in Cutaneous & Mohs Surgery” at the University of Miami, Florida, United States.
