My goal is to educate my patients to ensure they have a full understanding of what is going on with their body so they can make the best decisions for them regarding their medical care. I want all my patients to feel heard, not just by me but by the entire UC Davis community, and I strive to provide the best care possible.
Dr. Peterman is double board-certified in Dermatology and Pediatric Dermatology, having completed a fellowship in Pediatric Dermatology after Dermatology residency. She has a wide range of clinical expertise in diagnosing and treating people of all ages from babies to the elderly, with a particular focus in surgical procedures and laser treatments. She mananges all general dermatological concerns, especially skin cancer screening and management, but has special clinical interest in vascular anomalies (including port wine birthmarks, infantile hemangiomas, arterial/venous/lymphatic malformations), genetic disorders, and other birthmarks.
Dr. Peterman's academic interest is in vascular anomalies and expanding our Vascular Anomalies Clinic. She is also passionate about teaching the next generation of students and residents about Pediatric Dermatology.
