Healthy Skin Is In
A female Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in Bluffton SC, Audrey A Klenke MD is highly trained in all aspects of plastic surgery including skin cancer, scar revision, hand surgery, breast reconstruction as well as comprehensive cosmetic surgical and non-surgical options for refreshing your look.
"As a plastic surgeon concerned about your skin’s well-being, I hope all of my patients are mindful of their skin’s happiness. I encourage my patients who have concerns about changing moles or worrisome spots to undergo at least annual full-body skin checks, and sometimes more frequently depending on the situation. (Be sure that your physician takes photos of every square inch to have as reference for any changing areas.)"

Shelbi joins the Pinnacle team from Arkansas, where she began her nursing career in 2007. After several years working in the ICU and Rapid Response, Shelbi made the decision to further her education and become a Nurse Practitioner. She acquired the fundamental skills as a sole practitioner at a busy dermatology practice in AR, which ignited her passion for helping those with skin cancer both in treatment and prevention.
She conducts full body skin exams, diagnoses and treats skin cancers and other skin conditions and administers cosmetic injectables such as Botox and fillers.
Shelbi has a passion for the outdoors - running, working out, fishing and camping. When she’s not in the office taking care of patients, you can find her in the community educating folks on comprehensive skin health and the prevention of skin cancer.
We'd love to hear from you!
