About Reza Kafi
Dr. Reza Kafi was drawn to the specialty of dermatology because of the versatility of practice. “We see patients from the start to the finish of their conditions, and we can also experience the visual diagnosis, progressing through pathology and ending through treatment or surgical intervention,” he says. “This is unique to the field and very compelling to me.”
Yet while he treats complex medical and surgical dermatology patients, Dr. Kafi remains focused on the whole person as his highest priority and treasures each encounter. “I feel it is an honor and privilege to be allowed to care for a patient’s overall health and improve their quality of life.”
Dr. Kafi, a board-certified dermatologist, earned his undergraduate degree in biology and medical degree from the University of Michigan. He went on to complete his internship nearby at Oakwood Hospital in Dearborn and his residency training with Stanford University.
Having grown up in Michigan and attended the state’s flagship university, he still enjoys Michigan football today. While not working, he loves tennis, the outdoors, and spending time with his family.

Providence Patient
Excellent health care
Providence Patient
Talks too fast. Seems disinterested in what I have to say. Seems like ha had other more important things to do. It made me forget a couple of questions that I have. He's probably good doctor but not my cup of tea. Feels like I'm talking to a car sales person.
Providence Patient
I felt rushed. The entire appt only took 11 minutes. Please take more time with your patients, Dr Kafi. He also had a wall up and was obviously eager to get me in and out of there as quickly as possible.

This practice is extremely courteous, helpful and makes going to dr a pleasant experience. I have recommended this practice to others. Truly this practice is superb!
