We recently had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Reimer and learn a little bit more about her, and we’re excited to share our Q&A so you can get to know her too!
Q: Where did you go to college?
A: I went to college at Northwestern University in Chicago and I studied biomedical engineering. I always knew that I wanted to go to medical school and pursue medicine as a career. I then went to medical school at The Ohio State University. I was interested in lots of different specialties and didn’t decide to pursue dermatology until I did my first dermatology rotation as a 4th-year medical student.
Q: What made you decide to pursue your career in dermatology?
A: I chose dermatology because I loved the diverse nature of our patient care and patient interaction. I also love seeing patients of all ages and genders.
Q: What is your number one tip when it comes to taking care of your skin?
A: Sun protection!
Q: If there was one thing you wish your patients knew about you, what would it be?
A: I have 4 kids (ages 2-14), so most of my free time is with them! They are a busy crew with lots of activities and sports. Outside of my kids, I try to keep active, spend time with friends and family, travel (during NON-Covid times!), and read.
Q: What is your favorite aspect of being a dermatologist?
A: I love forming relationships with patients and their families. One of my favorite parts of practicing is that I get to know a patient’s whole family, often spanning many generations.
Q: What is your approach to treating your patients?
A: I try very hard to form a collaborative and trusting relationship with patients
