Board-certified dermatologists are the experts. PAs work directly under the supervision of our physicians to assist in the delivery of care. PAs are midlevel providers with a professional license to practice medicine under the supervision of a licensed physician. PAs diagnose and treat illnesses, perform skin checks and procedures, prescribe medication, and order/interpret lab tests.
Patient Education is Key
Our focus is to EDUCATE patients about our products/services and emphasize the importance of sunscreen and skincare.
The Latest Aesthetic Products and Procedures
We offer the latest aesthetic products and procedures. Whatever your treatment goals might be, we offer an array of effective treatments to help your skin look and feel its best. We have the experience, training, and tools to create effective treatment plans for our patients. Our board-certified dermatologists have training and expertise with lasers for skin tightening, wrinkles, port-wine stain birthmarks, rosacea and red faces, unsightly blood vessels, leg veins, blotchy sun-damaged skin, and unwanted facial/body hair.
All Injectables Administered by Physicians Only
In some practices, non-physicians inject neurotoxins and fillers. In our practice, all cosmetic injections are administered by board-certified dermatologists only. Our physicians have a comprehensive understanding of facial aging and anatomy, and we feel that injections are too important to delegate to a non-physician. The safety of our patients is of the utmost importance, and we are equipped to problem-solve should any complications arise.
Comfortable Environment for Patients
Our clinic is located on the second floor and offers spacious reception areas, complimentary coffee, and large treatment rooms.
