Jeffrey Benabio

Dr. Jeffrey Allen Vall Benabio, MD

DermatologyDermatologic Surgery

OVERVIEW

Dr. Benabio grew up in a small Italian neighborhood in Rhode Island, where he developed a life-long love for the Red Sox, pasta, and Dunkin Donuts. He earned a BA from Providence College (Go, Friars!) and an MA from Brown University. After working in alcohol and addiction studies at Brown, he and his wife moved to North Carolina where he was project manager of a stroke study at UNC-Chapel Hill. In 2003, he graduated first in his class from Wake Forest University School of Medicine, where he also served as Class President, President of Alpha Omega Alpha, and was the recipient of the prestigious Faculty Award. He completed his medical internship at Scripps Mercy Hospital in San Diego and his dermatology residency at UC Irvine, where he was named chief resident in his final year. Currently, Dr. Benabio is Physician Director of Healthcare Transformation at Kaiser Permanente in San Diego, CA. He is a board certified dermatologist and member of the American Academy of Dermatology, and for 7 years has been experimenting with digital technologies to find better ways to care for patients. In San Diego, he helped create and sustain one of the largest telehealth programs in the country. He has been an example and advocate for using social networks to educate and empower patients and has become a sought after speaker, lecturing on telemedicine, health innovation, and social networking for health systems and physician groups. A consultant for telemedicine and digital start-ups, he serves on several boards, including the External Advisory Board for the Mayo Clinic Center for Social Media. Dr. Benabio has authored social networking papers in academic journals, writes a monthly column on technology and healthcare for Skin & Allergy News, and is frequently quoted both in print and online in publications such as O, The Oprah Magazine, Health, The New York Times, and WebMD. Perhaps, most importantly, Glamour magazine named him a Rock Star of Dermatology, making him his niece's coolest uncle. He enjoys hiking, bodybuilding, and traveling, and hopes to become a cowboy in Montana during his retirement.

Data Transparency and Trust: Understanding WebMD Doctor Listings and Reviews

We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.

All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews. Providers are not able to remove or modify reviews on their own. Reviews can only be removed after an internal review by our customer service team.

We value your input and encourage you to reach out to our support team if you encounter any issues.
