Gigi Rusnak, MSN, FNP-C, DCNP
Welcome! I’m Gigi Rusnak, a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and one of the few Dermatology Certified Nurse Practitioners in the country.
With a deep passion for skin health and years of specialized experience in dermatology, I’m here to help treat your skin and hair conditions from the comfort of your home through my telehealth dermatology practice. Currently serving patients located in Washington, Idaho, and Montana!
My Story
My love for dermatology began in the fifth grade when I struggled with severe acne. The care and expertise of my nurse practitioner changed my life, inspiring me to pursue a career dedicated to helping others feel confident in their skin. After graduating magna cum laude from Emory University with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, I gained invaluable experience working both in dermatology as an RN and as a medical-surgical travel nurse during the COVID-19 pandemic. I then earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Georgetown University and transitioned into dermatology as a Nurse Practitioner.
Throughout my career, I’ve seen firsthand how skin concerns impact overall well-being. I believe that high-quality dermatologic care should be accessible, convenient, personalized, and evidence-based. My telehealth dermatology clinic allows me to connect with patients across the Northwest, providing expert care for acne, rosacea, eczema, and other common skin conditions.
​
On a more personal note, I grew up in Spokane, WA, and attended Lewis and Clark High School. I currently live in Pennsylvania where my family was originally from. ​I have a Portuguese Water Dog named Geoffrey, and 2 kittens named Gemma and Geno. When I am not consumed by them, I spend my free time on my Peloton, baking, golfing, and hanging out with my grandmother.
