• What do Dermatologists do?

Dermatology is a medical specialty that focuses on the skin. A dermatologist is a medical doctor who evaluates and treats disorders of the skin, hair, and nails. The skin is the largest and most visible organ on the body, acting as a barrier against injury and infection. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in humans, and fortunately most skin cancers can be cured with early diagnosis and treatment.  Skin disorders are common in people of all ages, ranging from newborns to the elderly.
