Our practice is large enough to offer patients dermatologists that specialize in the treatment of children. From an infant with “cradle cap” to a teenager suffering from acne, a young patient cannot be treated the same as grown-ups. As Dr. Hartley, our senior pediatric dermatologist, explains, “Long past is the time when people think of children as simply small adults. Children metabolize drugs differently; they manifest disease in different ways.” Dr. Hartley was a pediatrician for ten years before becoming a dermatologist, so he relates particularly well to both parents and the many pediatricians that refer children to our practice for diagnosis and care.

Acne is a particular concern for young adults, since a lot of anxiety and social concerns understandably accompany this condition. Click for more on the state-of-the-art treatments we offer.
