Practice Location:
7940 Floyd Curl Dr San Antonio, Texas I have been in the solo private practice of dermatology and dermatologic surgery since moving to San Antonio in 1976. Married to an ophthalmologist, my oldest daughter is a new board-certified dermatologist who has just joined me in practice, and my son is an orthopedic resident at UCLA, so we are a “medical” family.
I am a Diplomate of the American Board of Dermatology, a Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology, a Fellow of the American Society of Laser Medicine and Surgery, a Fellow of the American Society for Mohs Surgery and a Fellow of the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery. I am a member of the Texas Dermatology Society.
My professional interests and specialties include psoriasis (PUVA therapy), Mohs micrographic surgery for skin cancer, laser surgery (pulsed dye laser for port wine stains, vascular defects, hypertrophic scars, keloids, stretch marks and the erbium: YAG laser for resurfacing of wrinkles and acne scars), cosmetic dermatology including chemical peels, sclerotherapy, scar management, Botox injections and filler materials (including Restylane and micro-fat transfer). I still enjoy the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of medical dermatology.
Recent medical publications are “Multiple Miliary Osteomas of the Face Ablated with the Erbium: YAG Laser” (Archives of Dermatology), “Treatment of Molluscum Contagiosum with the 585-nm Pulsed Dye Laser” and “Skin Contraction Following Erbium: YAG Laser Resurfacing” (both Dermatologic Surgery), “Absence of human papillomavirus DNA in the plume of the Erbium: YAG laser” (Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology), “Treatment of lymphomatoid papulosis with imiquimod 5% cream” (Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, March 2006), and “Cold Air Anesthesia in Dermasurgery” (Dermatologic Surgery, February 2006). I have been a speaker at the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery, American Society for Mohs Surgery, Texas Medical Association and American Academy of Dermatology meetings. I have given laser seminars for Continuum Biomedical and am the inventor of the Hughes Dental Laser Shield and Hughes micrographic surgery punch.
I continue my enthusiasm for my chosen professional field of medicine, dermatology!
