Redwood Family Dermatology
In July 2002, Jeffrey Sugarman MD started his practice as a solo physician. He was later joined by Albert Peng MD, Judith Hong, MD, Ligaya Park, DO, Angela Wyble PA-C and Heather Lowe PA-C. The practice also offers the services of an esthetician, Dionne Ferronato. In August 2006 we opened a satellite office in Ukiah which allows us to help the patients from northern and coastal areas without such a long drive.
