Welcome to the Department of Dermatology. In the 21st Century, we continue to break new ground. Our department's board-certified physicians have one overarching goal: helping patients enjoy their everyday activities while minimizing or eliminating their symptoms.
Many cosmetic dermatologic treatments were pioneered or invented at Mass General. Our board-certified doctors have extensive laser and cosmetic training and offer the latest non-surgical cosmetic treatments to help you look and feel your best.

Our Commitment to Patient Care
At Mass General Dermatology, our goal is to provide the best possible patient care in a kind and welcoming environment. The real key to our success and accomplishing this comes down to our team. We take great care in having and fostering the greatest staff, who not only manage the logistics but genuinely care about our patients.
One of our strengths is the broad range of services we provide, truly offering the full spectrum of what one might hope for in a dermatology practice. Patients have voiced that they feel well cared for because they know their entire skin care plan can be provided for right here, in one place.
In honor of Dr. Ernesto Gonzalez’s legacy of care, Mass General Dermatology expands dermatologic care to Boston’s homeless men, women, and children.
For inquiries or to book an appointment, you can give us a call, and one of our receptionists will be happy to assist you and answer any questions you may have.
