Dr. Sandra Lee is known to many for her professional moniker 'Dr. Pimple Popper', which is also the name of her reality TV series. Through her show, the board-certified dermatologist transformed the niche world of medical extractions into a global cultural phenomenon.
Born in Flushing, New York to a Chinese-Singaporean father and a Malaysian mother, Lee followed in her father's footsteps to pursue medicine. She earned her medical degree from Drexel University College of Medicine in 1998 and completed her residency at Southern Illinois University.
