A Conversation with Dr. Dawn Queen
I always wanted to go into a specialty that holds space for both medical concerns and diagnostics, as well as procedures and aesthetic considerations. I want to be able to build long-term relationships with my patients and make sure they get exactly what they want! Dermatology combines the best of these worlds.
Smart, friendly, and empathetic.
I consider myself pretty adventurous so I love traveling in my free time and visiting new places! I also run, cycle (peloton), and read. In New York, I love eating at new restaurants and trying new foods. Give me some recs!
