I am a practicing physician-scientist and an academician with a robust, proven track record of managing the most complicated cases in medical dermatology requiring treatment of patients with a variety of topical and systemic medications (including, without limitation, corticosteroids, immunosuppressors, biologics, intravenous immunoglobulin, etc.). I have a unique expertise in treating patients with life-threatening allergic and autoimmune diseases of the skin and oral mucosa. I have developed several international treatment guidelines, such as for patients with pemphigus and pemphigoid. Additionally, my specific experience encompasses wound healing. I also have a long-term experience in the basic and clinical research of wide variety of immune-dependent skin diseases. I have been a Principal Investigator on several research grants from NIH and other granting agencies. The above expertise is attested by my nearly 300 peer-reviewed publications and book chapters, as well as over 170 abstracts of meeting presentations worldwide. Over the last two decades, I have been providing expert witness services to both plaintiffs' and defendants' attorneys, including several high-profile cases. I am currently a tenured Full Professor of Dermatology and Biochemistry at the University of California Irvine and a member of the UC Irvine Institute for Immunology and the Cancer Center & Research Institute. Furthermore, I am a Diplomate of American Board of Dermatology, a Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology and a standing member of several national and international professional societies. I have multiple professional awards and honors, including honorary society memberships and the "best of" clinician's awards, such as "Best Doctors in America," "America's Most Honored Professionals," etc.
