Dermatologist
Dr. Pruden is a Kentucky native originally from Henderson county, Kentucky. He graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of Louisville School of Medicine and completed surgery internship at the University of Tennessee in Memphis as well as four years of residency training in Otolaryngology (Ear nose and throat specialist)/Head & Neck Surgery at the University of Kentucky. As a practicing Otolaryngologist, Dr. Pruden took a particular interest in skin disease and skin cancer, so he went back to do 3 years of dermatology residency at St. Louis University and a year long Dermatopathology fellowship at Washington University in St. Louis.
With time, Dr. Pruden took a particular interest in skin cancer, which ultimately led him to spend three years at St. Louis University completing a second residency in Dermatology. This was followed by an additional year of Dermatopathology fellowship training at Washington University in St. Louis. Since graduation from these programs, Dr. Pruden went on to become board certified in Dermatology,Dermatopathology, and micrographic dermatologic Mohs surgery.
As a result of his years of advanced training, Dr. Pruden offers insight that would otherwise only be available by a team of specialists.
When away from work, Dr. Pruden enjoys spending time with his family.
