Who is Stella Zinman in How I Met Your Mother?

The dermatologist worth ten sessions · The Loves of Ted Mosby

Stella Zinman (The dermatologist worth ten sessions) is a character in How I Met Your Mother, part of The Loves of Ted Mosby. Dr Stella Zinman removes Ted's regrettable butterfly tattoo over ten sessions, during which he deploys the two-minute date — the most charming thing the series ever lets him do — to get around her no-dating-patients rule. A single mother with a settled New Jersey life, Stella is calm where Ted is operatic, which both attracts him and should have been the warning: their accelerating engagement is built over two unexamined exes, hers in New Jersey and his at MacLaren's, and weddings have a way of auditing exactly that.
