Professor of Dermatology and Pediatrics at UC San Diego School of Medicine and Pediatric Dermatology Fellowship Program Director at Rady Children's Hospital-San Diego, Wynnis Tom, MD earned her medical degree from UCSD School of Medicine in 2003 after undergraduate work at Stanford, then completed her dermatology residency at Saint Louis University before returning to UCSD for a pediatric dermatology fellowship. Her Hillcrest clinical practice at 4168 Front St treats children with severe atopic dermatitis, pediatric psoriasis, and rare genetic skin disorders, with endocrine-involved cases coordinated through Children's Healthcare Pediatric Endocrinology for metabolic and growth monitoring tied to systemic immunosuppressive therapy. Her published research in JAMA Dermatology and the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology covers methotrexate safety guidelines, pediatric psoriasis comorbidity screening, and biologic-agent comparisons for childhood inflammatory skin disease. She serves on consensus guideline panels for systemic therapy in pediatric atopic dermatitis and sits on the Pediatric Dermatology Research Alliance. Primary care referrals for children with suspected inflammatory skin disease feed in from pediatricians at CPCMG Hillcrest who need specialist input on systemic treatment decisions. The most complex cases handled here involve children on methotrexate, cyclosporine, or biologic agents for severe refractory eczema and psoriasis, where cardiac-risk screening, secondary infection surveillance, and growth tracking run in parallel with the dermatologic treatment plan.
