We provide comprehensive medical and cosmetic dermatology services including acne treatment, evaluation and removal of skin lesions, scar revision, cosmetic procedures, and care for nail conditions. Our practice manages routine and complex skin concerns for adolescents and adults and coordinates care with referring physicians when needed.
How do I schedule my first appointment with your Newburgh dermatology clinic?
We schedule new patient visits through our clinic front desk and administrative team, who will help find an appointment that fits your needs. If you are a referred patient you can mention your referral source when you call and we will coordinate with your referring physician.
What should I bring to my first dermatology visit?
Bring a list of current medications, any recent photos of the skin concern, and your primary care provider information. If you have prior dermatology records or biopsy reports, bringing copies helps us assess your history and plan treatment more efficiently.
Do you treat acne in teens and adults and what options are available?
Yes, we treat acne in adolescents and adults with medical and procedural options tailored to each patient. Treatment choices range from topical and oral medications to in office procedures and follow up plans that balance medical needs with cosmetic goals.
How do you evaluate and remove suspicious moles or skin lesions?
We perform a focused skin exam and, when indicated, take a biopsy to establish a diagnosis before recommending removal options. Removal techniques and follow up depend on the lesion type, location, and pathology results, and we explain the rationale and next steps at the visit.
What cosmetic dermatology procedures do you offer for scars and appearance concerns?
We offer targeted cosmetic approaches for scar revision and appearance improvement that may include in office procedures and topical treatments. During a consultation we review realistic expectations, the likely number of visits, and post procedure care to support the best possible outcome.
Do you treat nail conditions and what can I expect during evaluation?
We evaluate nail pain, discoloration, thickening, and suspected infections and provide medical and procedural options based on the diagnosis. Nail assessment often includes a clinical exam and, when appropriate, tests such as microscopy or culture to ensure the correct treatment.
How long do typical appointments and procedures take at your clinic?
Routine follow up visits are brief, often 15 to 20 minutes, while new patient evaluations and in office procedures may take longer depending on complexity. We try to provide clear time estimates when you schedule so you can plan your visit.
Do you accept referrals and do you coordinate care with primary care doctors?
Yes, we welcome referrals from primary care providers and communicate findings and treatment plans back to referring clinicians as appropriate. Coordinated care helps with chronic conditions, post procedure follow up, and integration of dermatology recommendations into overall health care.
What insurance and payment options do you accept for dermatology services?
We accept a range of insurance plans and offer transparent billing for services that may not be covered by insurance. Before a nonemergency procedure we review likely coverage, but patients should check benefits with their insurer to confirm coverage for specific services.
