Joanna Pinkerton has been in the aesthetics field for 10 years. For the last 8 years Joanna has been practicing in dermatology offices. She is happy to make the jump to a plastic surgery practice because she feels that the practice encompasses everything in the aesthetic world.

It is amazing to see their self esteem improve as we treat their condition. I find it very rewarding to be a part of such a process.”
