About
Bio
Hi and welcome! I'm Mamina Turegano, and I'm board certified in both dermatology and internal medicine. I currently reside in Los Angeles by way of New York, New Orleans, and Washington, DC. I'm a strong believer in taking a holistic approach to health. When evaluating skin disorders, I like to know any other medical problems you may be experiencing and address lifestyle factors. I also think it's important to have any suspicious lesions, growth, or moles evaluated sooner rather than later. I take pride in providing the best care and attention for my patients. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help!
