Robin Travers, MD
I’m Dr. Robin Travers. I attended Mount Holyoke College, attended the Boston University School of Medicine and after completing an Internship in Internal Medicine at Boston’s Beth Israel Hospital, I trained in dermatology in the Boston University/Tufts-New England Medical Center Combined Residency in Dermatology. I am a dermatologist at SkinCare Physicians in the Boston area. I write a monthly column in the JAMA Dermatology summarizing the most relevant and exciting recent dermatology research. I am an active member of several professional organizations including the American Academy of Dermatology, the Women’s Dermatology Society, the Skin Cancer Foundation, the Dermatology Foundation, and IMPACT Melanoma. I serve on the Medical Advisory Board of IMPACT Melanoma and coaches IMPACT Melanoma’s Marathon Team for the Boston Marathon every year. I am an avid endurance athlete and grew up in Portland, Maine with my identical twin sister. Being a part of IMPACT Melanoma’s programs gives me a lot of satisfaction, allowing me to give back to the community as a dermatologist. It was tons of fun helping to put together the video scenarios for the eLearning lessons and I especially enjoyed working on the Trivia Game as I have a particular mind for trivia and appeared on television’s Jeopardy! quiz show!
