As a child in her native Argentina, Monica Gavin, M.D., decided at an early age that she wanted to be a doctor. After graduating from college, completing her residency and serving in the United States Air Force, where she was awarded the Air Force Commendation Medal for meritorious service, Dr. Gavin opened the Azani Medical Spa. As a diplomat of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, Dr. Gavin feels passionate about educating her patients about the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and appearance no matter what their age.
Among the many achievements that Dr. Gavin has accomplished, one is most near and dear to her heart — Azani’s Free Acne Care Program, which offers her own acne treatment program to adolescents and children from low-income families regardless of their ability to pay. In 2007, Dr. Gavin was the recipient of a Women in Business Council Athena Award, given to her for her professional achievement and community service.
