What does a dermatologist specialize in?
A dermatologist is a medical professional that has extensive experience in conditions that impact the hair, skin, and nails. They have more in-depth insight into specific conditions that a primary care physician may not have.
When should I call a dermatologist?
Patients often call the Skin and Beauty Center when they have a skin, hair, or nail concern, or they make an appointment because they were referred to our practice from another physician.
What should I bright with me to my appointment?
Patients should bring their medical insurance information, a list of their current medications, and knowledge of their medical and family history as it pertains to their appointment. We encourage patients to show up before their scheduled visit to allow time to complete new patient intake paperwork with our front office team.
How long will my visit last?
The time needed for a dermatology appointment is determined based on the issue the patient is having evaluated. A simple appointment for an acne follow-up will be much shorter than an appointment where a patient is undergoing a laser procedure.
