We are so excited to have Rebecca Houlihan, FNP-BC at our Scarborough practice! We recently had the chance to learn more about her background, approach, and what led her to pursue a career in dermatology. She shared:

"In my previous career as an ER nurse, I had a special interest in patients who came to the ER with skin-related concerns. I went back to school at Simmons University and pursued a master’s in nursing to continue my education.

I ultimately chose dermatology because of the ability to treat a variety of acute and chronic conditions, prioritize skin cancer detection and prevention, and have the opportunity to learn both medical and aesthetic aspects of care."
