Dr. Battle is CEO and founder of Cultura Cosmetic Dermatology and Laser Center in Washington, D.C. He is also the recipient of many national academic honors and awards, including having been inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha medical honor society.

His research with Harvard Medical School helped usher in a new generation of non-invasive “color blind” cosmetic lasers. Dr. Battle is a member of the American Academy of Dermatology, American Society of Laser Medicine and Surgery and several international societies. In addition, Dr. Battle is past chairman of the dermatology section of the National Medical Association and past president of the Howard University Medical Alumni Association.
