Hi, I'm Dr. Anita Shetty!
I have been treating patients for close to 10 years. I didn't become a medical dermatologist by accident. Throughout high school, college and medical school, I struggled with severe cystic acne.
After so many unsuccessful over-the-counter treatments, years of frustration, and dealing with low self-esteem because of the way my face looked, I finally found a Dermatologist who helped me reveal my clear, healthy skin.
My personal experience drew me to pursue a career in Dermatology, where I'm able to help patients find a solution to their skin problems so they can look their best and get their confidence back.
I look forward to helping you create a treatment plan that is right for you.
