Dr. Alexa Gozali is a board-certified physician practicing full-time medical dermatology, with current board certification in family medicine.

Her full-time dermatology practice keeps her current in diagnostic and procedural standards, while her family medicine board certification allows her to evaluate how dermatologic conditions should have been recognized, escalated, and managed across ...
