Dr. Chima graduated magna cum laude from Boston University’s exclusive Accelerated Seven Year BA/MD program and received her medical degree from UMDNJ-Newark. Following her internship at Philadelphia’s Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, she completed her Dermatology residency in Washington, DC, where she achieved the distinction of Chief Resident.
