Sonal has been a physician assistant since 2002 and started her career in surgery, doing cardiothoracic and vascular surgery for the majority of her career and neurosurgery for over 10 years. She also worked at a mesotherapy clinic, learning techniques in weight and cellulite reduction. She has a strong interest in surgical, medical, and aesthetic dermatology, and she sees patients of all ages.

She joined Schaumburg Dermatology in 2016, but before that, she had been a patient at the clinic for many years. She considers herself fortunate to have had an excellent doctor, mentor, and leader in Dr. Prashant Singri, and she’s glad to serve in the community where she grew up.
