Over the course of my career in working with thousands of dermatology practices, dermatologists and residency programs, I found that there was an overwhelming demand to bring practices and new providers together as well as help practices obtain the tools to thrive in an ever changing healthcare market.
That’s how Dermatology Authority came to be: It emerged as a response to these and other requests that this unique community of dermatologists inquired.
Our mission is: For dermatologists to stay focused on patient care, let our trusted advisors help you grow your practice.
