“The AAD made great strides during the pandemic to meet members’ unprecedented needs,” Dr. Tomecki says. “I look forward to continuing this work and keeping a pulse on how the pandemic continues to impact our members and the specialty, and the way we practice dermatology. Overall, in addition to paying special attention to member needs, patient care will always be my primary focus.”

He is currently a staff physician in the department of dermatology at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio.
