Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Dr. Metz "We understand that kids are not little adults. Certain dermatologic conditions are unique to children, and diseases sometimes present differently in children than in adults. Even more importantly, caring for children takes a unique approach that can't be developed by seeing a few pediatric patients. Dr. Metz is uniquely qualified, having fulfilled fellowship training in pediatric and adolescent dermatology and having served as the Director of Pediatric Dermatology at UCI for over 5 years."
