About Steven D. Emmet, MD
Dr. Emmet's father was the first dermatologist in Long Island, New York. So at age seven, it was only natural for him to want to become a dermatologist. He graduated and received his medical degree from Boston University. He completed an internship at Framingham Union Hospital in Framingham, Massachusetts. Dr. Emmet worked with the U.S. Army as a dermatologist for two years, one of the years being in Vietnam. In 1971, he returned to New York to start his formal training in dermatology at New York University. Having acquired a bit of wanderlust, he moved to California. He worked for Kaiser Permanente and then opened his own private practice in Solana Beach. Dr. Emmet is a Diplomate of the American Board of Dermatology. He is also a voluntary clinical professor at UCSD and the VA hospital. In 2017, Dr. Emmet joined Dr. Goskowicz and Dr. Crosby at Coastal Skin and Eye to continue to treat and educate his patients. He has especially enjoyed having their surgical and cosmetic expertise available to his patients. When he is not treating patients, Dr. Emmet enjoys traveling the world and photography.
