Lasers in Dermatology and Medicine

Dr. Keyvan Nouri completed a combined undergraduate and medical education program (MMEDIC) at Boston University in 1993, and went on to pursue a dermatology residency at the University of Miami (UM). After residency, his procedural dermatology fellowship in Mohs Micrographic Surgery, Dermatologic, Laser, and Cosmetic Surgery took place at New York University. As an alternative to the executive MBA, he took part in the Program for Leadership Development (PLD) at Harvard Business School. He is presently, the editor-in-chief of the Lasers in Medical Science journal and the editor of 8 textbooks. He has also authored  290 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 130 book chapters, and various other publications. He has been a recipient of several prestigious honors including: Best Doctors in America, Surgeon of the year for the Florida Society of Dermatologic Surgery and Excellence in International Patient Care and Outreach from the Florida Society of Dermatology.
