Mother-Daughter, Dermatologist Duo

Elianna and Dr. Goldstein are the dermatologist and mother-daughter duo behind Modern Ritual.

After Elianna saw her father get treated for skin cancer in 2018, she partnered with her mother, leading skin cancer surgeon Dr. Beth Goldstein (@dermdrgoldstein). Together, their mission is to expand access to skin healthcare options to prevent and detect skin cancer.

It’s called a Modern Ritual, because we fundamentally believe that skin health is a part of our body's overall health, which means we should take care of it, invest in it, the way we do all other parts of our daily rituals.
