Physician Assistants

Erin Doherty, MS, PA-C

Erin Doherty, MS, PA-C at Brinton Lake DermatologyA native of Montgomery County, Erin Doherty is thrilled to be working with the team at Brinton Lake Dermatology.

Now I have the opportunity to help my patients feel more comfortable with their own skin.” Erin says the best part about her role as a Physician’s Assistant is being an integral part of a team — everyone working together to find the best solution for the patient.
