Board-certified dermatologist Brian Kleker, MD, practices within Kaiser Permanente's La Mesa Medical Offices at 8080 Parkway Drive, providing integrated skin care to Kaiser members across La Mesa's 91942 ZIP code and surrounding East County. His dual training in internal medicine and dermatology — completed at the University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics (2008–2013) after graduating from the University of Colorado School of Medicine — equips the practice for systemic skin diseases where dermatological findings indicate underlying autoimmune or connective tissue disorders, conditions that share diagnostic overlap with periocular presentations managed by eye care providers like Alvarado Eye La Mesa on Fletcher Parkway. Peer-reviewed publications include case studies on eosinophilic fasciitis without classic histopathological findings and Mohs micrographic surgery for localized cutaneous alternariosis, contributing to the evidence base for atypical dermatologic presentations. Kaiser Permanente's integrated model co-locates dermatology with on-site pathology, pharmacy, and radiology at the Parkway Drive campus, and scalp-specific conditions involving alopecia or scarring folliculitis share a diagnostic corridor with specialized treatment at La Mesa Medical Hair Restoration for cases requiring surgical intervention beyond medical management. The practice performs full-thickness excisional biopsies with dermatopathology processing for melanocytic lesion evaluation, utilizing immunohistochemical staining panels including SOX-10, Melan-A, and Ki-67 proliferation indexing.
