His dermatology residency was completed at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Ann Arbor, Michigan, which is ranked by Fortune/IBM Watson as the #3 teaching hospital in the United States.
He has worked with patients from a variety of ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds and received extensive training in medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology.

He has been published in multiple academic journals, presented at the American Academy of Dermatology, and served as editor for the Michigan Dermatologic Society. Dr. Sigal is double-board certified in Dermatology and Micrographic Dermatologic Surgery (Mohs surgery).
Born and raised in Marietta, Georgia, Dr. Sigal has lived and traveled all over the United States. He made an active choice to return to Arizona, where he attended medical school, in order to practice with his original mentors Dr. Ko and Dr. Ebner. Arizona Dermatology’s brilliant physicians and incredible staff drew him back to the desert. He enjoys treating patients of all backgrounds and developing a personal relationship that allows him to become a trusted partner in their care. He emphasizes with his staff the importance of giving patients an extraordinary experience from when they walk in the door until their visit ends. His patients enjoy his lighthearted sense of humor and willingness to answer questions both simple and complex.
