The dermatology department is recognized both nationally and internationally for its long tradition of excellence for care of adults with skin diseases and disorders. Board-certified faculty physicians provide general dermatological care and subspecialty care, including dermatologic surgery and pediatric dermatology.
Physicians treat all conditions associated with the skin, including skin cancer, psoriasis, hypersensitivity disorders, acne and blistering diseases.
Dermatological surgeons work in collaboration with the dermatologist or referring physician and patient to identify the most effective treatment available. Services offered include:
- Mohs micrographic surgery for treatment of skin cancer
- Dermabrasion and scar revision
- Sclerotherapy for leg veins
Other specialized procedures to treat skin problems include PUVA and UVB phototherapy.
