About Me
Dr. Christopher Barnard, a Diplomate of the American Board of Dermatology and member of the American Academy of Dermatology brings a wealth of experience to his practice. He specializes in general, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology, and is committed to providing thorough evaluations and the best treatment options in a calm and welcoming environment.
Dr. Barnard’s journey from Maryland to the US Navy aboard the USS Nimitz, to medical school in Cleveland, Ohio, and residency in Palo Alto, California, has shaped his interests in surgery and imaging research in dermatology. He served as president of the San Francisco Dermatological Society and held several leadership roles in state and national dermatology societies, including the board of the California Society of Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery. A current Adjunct Clinical Associate Professor at Stanford University’s Department of Dermatology, Dr. Barnard has dedicated years to teaching skin cancer surgery to the residents.
Beyond medicine, Dr. Barnard is a talented classical orchestral percussion and drum set player, with a passion for blues, jazz, and rock music. He is proud of raising his two older sons to become remarkable young men and is currently guiding his youngest in the same manner. He also enjoys ocean sailing, skiing, and backpacking.
