Barbara Burrall, M.D.
Philosophy of Care
Dr. Burrall finds dermatology very interesting - and fun - because it combines the study of many
diverse fields of medicine. With dermatologic disease, treatment decisions are often influenced by
the patient's feelings about the disease, so she tries to include her patients actively in the decisionmaking process and the treatment plan. Good dermatological health requires avoidance of
excessive sun exposure. Using good sun protection also proves extremely beneficial. Overall good
patient care necessitates cooperation among different specialists and the primary care doctor, a
good working relationship that focuses on the patient. Dr. Burrall has been associated with UC
Davis since 1981, and enjoys collaborating with physicians from many other specialties to provide
outstanding care for her patients.
