Hi There! This is Dr. Fara Kamangar, MD. Does the world need doctors with engineering degrees? YES! I am an example of why this dual degree works. Here are a few things that I do: I am the Chair of my dermatology department at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation, I am the chair of San Francisco Dermatological Society–one of the oldest Derm societies in the country! I consult in Health Tech and Telehealth. I am the founder of www.PsoTelehealth.com. My other passions are mentoring medical students and residents, and medical mission trips abroad.

As you can tell I also went to school for a little bit (14 years or so). I have an engineering background, and went on to medical school and became a board certified dermatologist.
