Physician Assistant (Dermatology)
46080 Jefferson St, La Quinta, CA
Phi-Yen ?Mimi? VuTran, PA-C, a certified physician assistant, is the first PA to work with Contour Dermatology. She joined the practice in April 2022 and brings several years of dermatologic experience, including extensive work with biologic treatments. Previously, she worked at First OC Dermatology in Fountain Valley. Born and raised in Orange County, Mimi completed her undergraduate studies at the University of California, Irvine, earning bachelor's degrees in biological sciences and psychology. She earned her master's degree in physician assistant studies from Lincoln Memorial University at the Debusk College of Medicine in Harrogate, TN. Mimi knew by middle school that she wanted to study medicine. Sadly, the inspiration came from a family tragedy when she lost a close cousin to a complication from a medical procedure. ?Because of this, I wanted to make a difference in the medical field. I know how it can affect families,? she said. Mimi's medical experience spans pediatrics to seniors. Much of her work in college involved children, including service at the Children's Hospital of Orange County and clinical research for children with autism. During surgical rotations of her PA studies, she discovered her passion for dermatology. ?I am a real crafty person. I love working with my hands,? she said. ?The dermatology procedures came naturally to me.? Her personal experience with dermatology involves battling acne. ?My parents are immigrants from Viet Nam, and they didn't know what treatment options were out there,? she explained. ?I struggled with this up until college. It's great to have that knowledge now to educate early and advocate for my patients.? During her pre-med studies, Mimi had the opportunity to serve on several medical missions, including visiting her parents' homeland, working with Project Viet Nam. She is fluent in English and Vietnamese and can speak conversational Spanish.
