She performs cosmetic injections, fillers, botox, laser therapy, IPL, skin peels, as well as other cosmetic procedures. Emma is also well-versed in surgical dermatology, having performed numerous skin cancer surgeries in our office. 

Wirt (Andy) Hines Ph.D., M.D., is double board certified in both medical dermatology, and Micrographic Skin Surgery.  He has experience in nearly every aspect of medical, surgical, and aesthetic treatment of skin disorders.  Dr. Hines is frequently asked to educate our community on disorders of the skin (click here for a sample article in the Anacortes American), and actively engages our community through volunteer work.  Dr. Hines instructs the Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioners (ARNP's) in dermatology for the University in Seattle.   Dr. Hines is a past President of the National Alliance on Mental Illness in Skagit County, which is the largest grassroots organization in the USA to provide support and education for those with mental illness and their families.  Dr. Hines was also on the Advisory Board of Directors for Compass Health and the PACT Program (Program for Assertive Community Treatment).  Compass Health is the #1 provider for mental health in Skagit County.    Dr. Hines is vice president of the Skagit-Island County Medical Society and a voting delegate for the Washington State Medical Association.
