O autorze

Born and raised in New York City, Dr. Kupetsky completed her B.A. at Rutgers-NJIT and medical school in Rowan-SOM. She completed a family medicine residency at St. Joseph's hospital in Philadelphia, a Masters in Pharmacology at Thomas Jefferson University, and a Dermatopharmacology Fellowship at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. It was her time doing research at Thomas Jefferson University that her interest in the clinical applications for magnesium in medicine began. She wanted to use her knowledge of a whole-patient approach to medicine and love of dermatology to help patients who had Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum, a disease that causes ectopic calcification and can be potentially treated with magnesium supplementation. After this research, Dr. Kupetsky completed her dermatology residency in Ohio in 2016 and has worked as an employee for a large dermatology company about two years before deciding to start her own private practice.
