We provide a full range of dermatological services including medical and cosmetic dermatology, skin pathology and dermatologic surgery. Dermatologists are physicians who after completing their general medical training and at least one year of internal medicine, spend a minimum of three full years learning about specific diseases of the skin and how they relate to all other fields of medicine. Our practice offers:

Medical Dermatology
This involves the treatment of diseases of the skin, hair and nails. Some examples of diseases and conditions in our specialty include eruptions of the skin associated with:

- A pulsed dye laser for selective destruction and treatment of vascular lesions, such as port-wine birthmarks, hemangiomas, telangiectasias, as well as certain warts, hypertrophic scars and stretch marks.

- A long pulse high energy alexandrite laser for safe removal of unwanted facial and body hair.

Dermatologic Surgery
We also evaluate and remove moles, warts, skin tags, and cysts.  Skin cancer evaluation and surgery is an important part of our practice, as well as the evaluation and treatment of other degenerative processes of the skin due to aging or sun exposure.

Skin Pathology
An important dimension to our practice is our Skin Pathology Laboratory. All skin biopsy specimens are interpreted by board certified Dermatopathologists. Dermatopathology consultative services are available to other physicians upon request.
