Along with her interest in medical aesthetics, Dr. Stewart has a keen interest in general dermatology and completed a Diploma in Practical Dermatology at Cardiff University in Wales in 2010. Since then, Dr. Stewart has incorporated consulting dermatology into her busy academic family and aesthetic medicine practice. She serves as a Provincial Dermatology Associate serving patients and their general dermatology concerns from across the province as this is an underserviced specialty in PEI.

She is Assistant Professor in the Family Medicine Department of Dalhousie’s Faculty of Medicine and is the Curriculum Coordinator for the PEI site of the Dalhousie Family Medicine Program. She is actively involved with teaching and regularly serves as preceptor to Family Practice residents and other learners in her practice.

Perkin Award at Family Medicine Forum in November, 2015. Dr. Stewart is passionate about all aspects of family medicine and embraces patient centred care and has a very personal approach to her patients.
