About our dermatologists

Victoria Kuohung MD JD

Victoria Kuohung was born in Rochester, New York, into a family of physicians.  She was raised in metro Chicago where she saw her father, an obstetrician-gynecologist, work endless hours to help his patients have healthy pregnancies.  An old-fashioned physician, her father took care of entire families, from grandmothers, to mothers, to daughters and their babies. Dr. Kuohung now brings this commitment to caring for entire extended families to her own practice of dermatology in founding DermCare Experts.

She loves getting to know parents and their children, enjoys watching babies grow up to be toddlers, and has a knack for remembering all the details about what’s going on in your life.  An aficionado of diverse cultures, Dr. Kuohung has worked abroad in Uganda and Bolivia, and for underserved populations in the United States such as the Navajo and Alaska’s Unalaska tribe.  She speaks fluent Mandarin and decent Spanish, and is committed to addressing the diverse needs of people with a variety of skin types.  She believes in giving back to the community, and holds free skin cancer screenings throughout the South Shore.

While she’s not working, Dr. Kuohung is managing her four boys.

Achieving healthy skin doesn’t happen overnight, but Dr. Kuohung will be there every step of the way, for the long haul, to help you attain your goals.

Dr. Candace Broussard-Steinberg

Dr. Candace Broussard-Steinberg is a board-certified dermatologist originally from South Carolina. As the child of a military family, she experienced frequent relocations across the country until her father’s retirement in Columbia, SC. Growing up, she was encouraged to explore her affinity towards science and medicine, and eventually, she fulfilled her dreams, becoming a first- generation physician.

Dr. Broussard-Steinberg is accompanied by her husband, son, and three breakfast-named dogs (Waffles, PopTart, and Bagel). Beyond her dedication to dermatology, she finds joy in baking, music, indulging in fantasy romance reads, and keeping up with the latest news.

As someone with Type 1 Diabetes since early college, Dr. Broussard-Steinberg empathizes with patients’ experiences. She prioritizes building respectful patient-physician relationships, offering tailored education, and involving patients in their care decisions. Dedicated to delivering compassionate, evidence-based care, she is committed to enhancing the well-being of each patient she serves.

Dr. Edward Herman

A native of California’s South Bay, Edward Herman grew up in a family rooted in science and healthcare. His father, a physicist in the semiconductor industry, taught him to build and fix things, sparking an early interest in problem-solving that would shape his career. His mother, a nurse who rose to become Chief Nursing Officer of a large hospital, introduced him to the world of medicine and the fulfillment of caring for the sick. With three sisters (a nurse, a lawyer, and a business professional), Dr. Herman learned early the value of diverse perspectives and dedicated service.

Dr. Herman earned his MD/PhD in Immunology from Yale University’s Medical Scientist Training Program, where his research focused on T-cell cytokines and gene regulation. This foundation in immunology informs his approach to dermatology every day, from treating common inflammatory conditions like eczema and psoriasis to managing rare and complex skin diseases. He provides cutting-edge treatment options while maintaining an easy-going approach and prioritizing his patients’ quality of life.

Training took Dr. Herman from Southern California to New Haven and on to the University of Pittsburgh for his dermatology residency before beginning practice in Massachusetts. His greatest challenge remains balancing life as a father to two young children with his work as a dermatologist-scientist. Weekends typically include youth hockey games, building Lego creations, and working on puzzles with his kids. Together with his wife Katie, also a physician, he enjoys exotic scuba-diving adventures in search of sharks and eels.

Dr. Herman brings his expertise and passion for medical dermatology to DermCare Experts and its clinical trials program. His personalized approach, willingness to manage even the most difficult conditions, and collaborative decision-making style empower patients to achieve clear and healthy skin.
