I agree with Victoria Beckham's facialist - A maximal routine is usually a mistake because it is kind of blindly throwing everything but the kitchen sink at your skin, hoping to cover all the bases. A routine that's simpler and targeted to your skin's needs is better. SHAPE

It is with great enthusiasm that I announce that during the last week of December, 2018 my practice joined the Schweiger Dermatology enterprise. Officially I am part of its Citywide Dermatology, PLLC which is managed by Schweiger Dermatology Management Group.

Why join? It is well known that delivering health care is getting increasingly regulated and complicated which for me, as a solo practitioner, became an unwelcome distraction from patient care. I am delighted to have now handed over payroll, employee benefits, retirement plan, etc to these experienced professionals. I have known Dr. Schweiger since I moved into my office in 2010 because he was in the Parkoff building too. Dr. Schweiger expanded and has a few floors but then Dr. Robert Bernstein on Floor 11 joined and I recently joined (on Floor 7). There is a lot of Schweiger dermatology going on at 110 E 55th Street!

I sincerely hope that this transition will serve to only improve your experience at the office of Janet H. Prystowsky, MD! See you soon!

Below are photos of me taken this past year volunteering for the Skin Cancer Foundation to do skin cancer screenings at Columbus Circle. PS- I still wear my hair straight too!
