Dr. Lewis

An MD degree is an honor and, I believe, carries with it an obligation. Many hard working, talented people, despite an intense desire to become a doctor, do not reach this goal. Skill and dedication are not always enough; sometimes it also takes what some people may call luck. For those of us fortunate to have gained an MD degree, I believe we owe our fellow citizens our help in treating their medical problems. My staff and I will do our best to help you.

I have been in private practice of dermatology in Walnut Creek since 1980. I have been privileged to be associated with the Stanford University School of Medicine since 1976. Currently I am an Adjunct Clinical Associate Professor of Dermatology at Stanford where I supervise medical students and other physicians in training to become board certified dermatologists.

I also am on the staff of John Muir Hospital and am a Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology. I am a member of the California Medical Association, Alameda-Contra Costa Medical Association, The Skin Cancer Foundation Medical Advisory Board, The International Society for Hair Restoration, The American Society For Mohs Surgery, and The American Society for Dermatology Surgery.

I am married with two children and have lived in Contra Costa County since 1980. I love Northern California and the Bay Area. I have sailed the Bay countless times, sometimes in less than optimal conditions. I support the arts in the Bay Area, am an amateur photographer, and an aficionado of Italian motor scooters.
