At Valley Dermatology, all of our dermatologists are board-certified, and are dedicated to providing excellent care. Dermatologists are doctors who specialize in and treat more than 3,000 conditions that affect the skin, hair, and nails. Needless to say, they help with a wide variety of conditions and diseases. On any given day, they could treat anything from a birthmark, to melanoma, eczema, hair loss and more. Dermatologists also treat patients who want help with cosmetic concerns. This includes giving patients with aging skin a more youthful appearance, removing unwanted fat or hair, and diminishing scars due to acne or other causes.

A minimum of twelve years of training and education is typically required in order to become a dermatologist in the United States and other western countries. This includes an undergraduate pre-medical degree, general medical training, internship and dermatology specialization training.
