Dr. Daniel Sugai was born and raised on the Hawaiian island of Oahu where he studied biology and art in college at the University of Hawaii. He then went on and got his M.D. from the University of Hawaii and was Class President and President of his school’s AOA Honor Society. He completed his dermatology training in the Harvard Combined Dermatology Residency Program where he trained at Mass General Hospital/BWH/Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center/Boston Children’s Hospital. Upon graduating from residency and passing his board certification examination, he moved to Seattle, WA and practices medical, cosmetic and surgical dermatology- seeing pediatrics and adults. He received multiple “Top Doctor” accolades including Seattle Met Magazine Top Doctor 2020. At the start of the pandemic in March/April 2020, Dr. Sugai started a YouTube channel, Instagram and TikTok to help disseminate credible science-backed skin education to the masses. It has become a “second job” and a passion of his and he enjoys connecting with people from all around the globe. 

    John Harris, MD, PhD

    Dr. Harris is the Chair of Dermatology, Founding Director of the Vitiligo Clinic and Research Center, and Founding Director of the Autoimmune Therapeutics Institute at UMass Medical School in Worcester, Massachusetts. He is a dermatologist and physician-scientist, caring for patients in a vitiligo specialty clinic and running a large research laboratory focused on understanding disease pathogenesis and developing new treatments. His group integrates basic, translational, and clinical research strategies to accomplish this. As a result, early clinical trials in vitiligo have shown success, and more are being developed. Finally, Dr. Harris founded Villaris Therapeutics, whose entire focus is to develop an effective, long-lasting treatment for vitiligo.
