He obtained his Bachelors of Science Degree from UCLA, graduated Summa Cum Laude (with highest honors), and was invited to join the Phi Beta Kappa honors society.

For several years, Dr. Glassberg served as the head of Dermatologic Surgery at the Harbor-UCLA residency program, then went on to co-found the Laser Skin Care Center and Dermatology Associates with Dr Bryna Kane. They also co-founded the non-profit Erase-the-past tattoo removal clinic and Foundation, to help former gang-members remove visible tattoos in exchange for community service, so they may re-enter society, obtain jobs, and a higher education.

It is Dr. Glassberg’s philosophy to treat all patients as if they were family, and provide care in a modern, clean and comfortable environment, with the latest technology and medical information, and to surround himself with like-minded partners, associates and staff of the highest character.
