FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Reno, Nev., February 2, 2026. Skin Cancer & Dermatology Institute is pleased to welcome Tera Zuccarini, NP, to its growing team of dermatology providers. A Nevada native, Tera brings more than 12 years of healthcare experience to the practice, including the last eight years in urgent care, where she developed a strong foundation in comprehensive, patient-focused care.
Tera earned her graduate degree from the University of Nevada, Reno, graduating in 2015. With a background in family medicine, she approaches dermatologic care holistically, taking the time to understand each patient’s overall health, lifestyle, and long-term wellness goals.
“Tera’s extensive clinical experience, combined with her compassionate, patient-centered approach, makes her a wonderful fit for our practice,” said Sarah McDaniel, Regional Director of Operations at the Skin Cancer & Dermatology Institute. “She shares our commitment to proactive skin care and delivering high-quality dermatologic services to our community.”
Before beginning her medical career, Tera was a collegiate athlete – an experience that shaped her dedication to discipline, teamwork, and resilience. These values continue to guide her clinical practice and her personal commitment to health and wellness.
“I’m excited to join the team at Skin Cancer & Dermatology Institute and to care for patients in a setting that prioritizes both prevention and education,” said Zuccarini. “When it comes to skin health, I always tell patients: start young and care about your skin for your later self. Aging is inevitable; youthful skin doesn’t last forever. Stick to a good facial routine and wear SPF.”
Tera is now seeing patients at the South Reno location and looks forward to building long-term relationships focused on skin health, prevention, and education.
