MEET OUR FOUNDER

Dr. Geeta Yadav

Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Geeta Yadav is an expert in both medical and cosmetic dermatology. A second-generation Canadian, her interest in under-serviced communities and treating BIPOC patients was inspired by her childhood travels to India. She holds a master’s degree in International Health from Johns Hopkins and completed her dermatology training at the University of Toronto, where she still teaches today. Dr. Yadav is a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons, the American Academy of Dermatology, and the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology. When she’s not working, she volunteers as an Alumni Governor at the University of Toronto. She also loves running, dancing, and spending time with her husband and three young children.
