New Canaan Dermatologist Comes Home To Start New Business NEW CANAAN, Conn. – New Canaan has been home to Dr. Maritza Perez for 25 years.

After years of commuting to New York, New Haven, Danbury, Mount Kisco and other locales, Perez decided nearly a year ago to build her brand in the town she calls home. “Sometimes God works in interesting ways,’’ said Perez, a native of Puerto Rico. “It was not something I had on my radar. I was comfortable working with my partners in Danbury for 13 years. I thought it was time.” …
