About me

Over the last 36 years, Kay has continued her advanced training with internationally recognized skincare lines and pharmaceutical products. Currently, she works under the direction of Drs.

Areas of expertise:
Kay's services include skin analysis, customized skin care, signature facials and chemical peels from PCA SKIN®, ZO Medical, and the DiamondTome Peel™. Chemical peels use a solution that incorporates naturally occurring acids with strengthening and brightening ingredients to exfoliate surface dead skin cells. Peels are effective in reducing surface wrinkles, sun damage and clearing acne/blemished skin. PCA Advanced Skin Care Systems®, Jane Iredale and ZO Medical products are available for purchase through Kay's practice.
As a native to Oregon, Kay loves everything about our area, even the rain. She loves spending time with her family, going to Broadway musicals, concerts, movies, and dining.

Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher.
