Med Creator 101

From the OR to your “For You” page, Dr. Neera Nathan, double board-certified Harvard-trained dermatologist and MOHS surgeon, proves that education never stops in the classroom, it just goes online. In this episode, Mimi and Dr. Portela sit down with Dr. Nathan, as she shares how her desire to teach led her from academic dermatology to a thriving social media platform with over 1.5 million Instagram followers and 700K on TikTok. She opens up about her early experiments with TikTok trends, how one viral dark-circle video changed everything, and why quick cuts, captions, and relatable storytelling are her editing superpowers.
