About

Hi, I’m Jaelynn Hobbs, and I aspire to be a pediatric dermatologist. My journey into dermatology is deeply personal. I was diagnosed with Confluent and Reticulated Papillomatosis (CARP), a rare skin condition that causes hyperpigmented, scaly patches. After years of visiting doctors with no success, I finally saw a dermatologist who prescribed minocycline, which cleared my skin almost instantly. That moment was life-changing and sparked my passion to pursue dermatology. Along with my love for working with kids, I’m determined to use my experience and knowledge to help others who are going through similar struggles.
