Catherine Payulert

I am a board-certified physician assistant (PA) with 10 years of experience in dermatology. At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, I care for patients with skin cancer. I see patients at David H. Koch Center for Cancer Care at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

I perform routine skin cancer screenings to find skin cancer so it can be treated early. I use many different tools to check my patients’ skin in order to diagnose skin cancer including dermoscopy, reflectance confocal microscopy and total body photography. I am passionate about patient education and helping patients learn the tools to maintain healthy skin.

I also work in Mohs surgery alongside our Mohs surgeons to assist with and perform various surgical procedures for the treatment of skin cancer. I work closely with patients to explain their diagnosis and discuss the  treatment options available to them.

In addition to providing direct care to patients, I also participate in research trials with the goal of improving care for patients with dermatologic issues. I also help to orient new colleagues in the department.

When I am not working, I enjoy traveling and exploring different cultures, customs and food.
