Dear Patients and Community members,

My current retirement has allowed me to reflect on the past 48 years as a dermatologist serving the peninsula community.  I am overwhelmed with gratitude and appreciation.  It has been an honor and a privilege to care for my patients.

I want to express my heartfelt thanks to all of my patients for allowing me to be part of your healthcare.  Your support, and kindness have been a source of daily inspiration.  I have enjoyed the relationships we have formed over the years and will miss sharing stories of our families, travels, and pets.

To the entire Monterey Peninsula community, I am thankful for the support you have shown me throughout my career and the warm welcome you extended to my son, Dr. Joseph Rheim, as he established his practice.  I am humbled by the opportunity to serve such a wonderful community.

As I retire from my dermatology practice, I want to take this opportunity to say thank you.

With gratitude,

Dr. James Rheim
