About Ari Gutman
Board-certified dermatologist with over a decade of clinical experience and a proven track record of leadership in both healthcare delivery and medical affairs. Served as Medical Principal at Cigna, where I was the sole dermatologist medical director, leading initiatives in utilization management, quality programs, coverage guideline development, and enterprise operations to optimize workflows. In addition to my payer-side leadership, I have extensive experience in clinical dermatology, consulting, and pharmaceutical research, including principal investigator roles in multiple Phase IV trials, as well as speaker bureau engagements for dermatology therapies. I have also served as an expert witness in dermatology-related legal cases, bringing deep expertise and credibility to complex medical issues. A graduate of New York University (BA), University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine (MD), and Drexel University (MBA), my experience combines clinical insight, business acumen, and innovative thinking. I currently serve as the US Medical Affairs Lead for atopic dermatitis at Incyte, where I am responsible for and execute the medical strategy, lead evidence generation and scientific communication initiatives, and build and sustain strategic partnerships, including with external experts.
