An experienced professional with a giant heart
Meet Dr. Sarit Itenberg
“Dermatology is one of the highest forms of art. It's about accentuating your beauty, and never compromising your health.”
Our story
The doctor who cares about your health
Dr. Itenberg is that rare breed of doctor: combining award-winning skill, an unstoppable drive for learning, and caring that's more than skin-deep.
Artistic and creative since childhood, Dr. Itenberg found her calling in dermatology, as it blends her twin passions: crafting beauty and delivering healing.
Her breadth of knowledge is unusual — encompassing not just the latest proven research in medical skin health and cosmetic dermatology but also advances in nutrition, health and holistic wellness.
Having trained in New York and practiced privately in New England for over a decade, Dr. Itenberg has the range of hands-on experience that comes from treating well over a thousand patients with every skin type and condition, exposed to sun, wind and all climate types.
She's a professional, providing deeply personalized treatments that deliver exceptionally good results. Yet she's a friend at the same time, able to put patients at ease, making every visit calm, soothing, pleasant and healing.
With SJI Dermatology, Dr. Itenberg set out to create a new kind of practice: one that gives her patients the freedom, knowledge and choice to get the treatment they need, on their terms and schedule — without letting third parties dictate their care.
She believes that people deserve straight answers, clear information, immediate treatment, and the choice to have a voice in their treatment plan. To her, being a truly great doctor means being a trusted advisor, a constant student, and a relentless advocate who listens, gives you the attention you deserve, and is there for the long haul.
While clinically she's acclaimed for her comprehensive evaluations, brilliant surgical work and beautifully precise, three-dimensional facial aesthetics, her patients all agree that what defines her most is the compassionate, friendly warmth that sets even the most nervous patients at ease.
As part of her passion for skin health and skin cancer prevention, Dr. Itenberg offers free community screenings and educational events, so she can spread knowledge and help people everywhere be their own best skin-health advocates.
As part of her commitment to skin health and community wellness, Dr. Itenberg supports local sun-safety initiatives through the donation of sunscreen dispensers. By increasing access to sunscreen in public spaces, she helps promote daily sun protection and skin cancer prevention throughout the community.

Her philosophy
What makes a great doctor
The compassion to care about you, as a person, just as much as your treatment.
The commitment to safety — "first, do no harm."
The confidence to be humble, and to say "I don't know" or "I'm not sure."
The integrity to advise honestly, even when it's not good business.
The passion to spread knowledge, because health is critical.
The authenticity to only recommend treatments I'd use myself, if I were in your skin.
