Dr. Joyce H. Park is a dermatologist based in Spokane, Washington, with 11-20 years of experience in the field. She earned her medical degree from Stanford University School of Medicine. Specializing in general dermatology, Dr. Park diagnoses and treats various skin conditions, and is also involved in cosmetic procedures. Her active medical licenses are held in California (through 2026), New York (through 2026), and Washington (through 2027).

Beyond her clinical practice, Dr. Park has established herself as a content creator and educator through her platform, Tea with MD. She utilizes social media channels to provide science-backed skincare and beauty content, fostering a community interested in dermatology. In 2011, during a gap year from medical school at Stanford, she pursued a medical journalism fellowship, which included work at the WHO headquarters in Geneva and an internship on the medical unit at NBC News. This early experience in communication laid the groundwork for her later foray into digital content creation. In 2013, as a third-year medical student, she launched her personal blog, which evolved into the Tea with MD platform, serving as a creative outlet and a means to share her journey and insights throughout her medical training, including stressful residency applications and her dermatology residency. She actively encourages other women pursuing medical careers to maintain work-life balance.
Dr. Park is also the founder of Skin Refinery, a virtual dermatology practice, which provides high-quality, personalized, and evidence-based care. Her publications reflect a strong interest in the intersection of dermatology and digital platforms, with studies on topics such as the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in patient education for dermatologic conditions, the comparative sufficiency of AI tools for answering diagnostic questions, and analyses of dermatological content and creators on platforms like TikTok and Instagram. She has also co-authored research on clinical features of various dermatologic conditions and racial disparities in dermatology training, demonstrating a commitment to professional advancement and addressing important issues within her specialty.
