Medical Dermatology refers to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases affecting the skin, hair and nails. Many conditions treated by our dermatologists are easily diagnosed and can be resolved in a short period of time with simple treatment plans. Other skin pathology is very complex, requiring expert diagnostic abilities and may require multi-faceted treatments used over a period of time. Our medical staff at the Academic Alliance in Dermatology offices participates in ongoing educational opportunities in order to make the most current knowledge and technologies are available to our patients.

The Medical Dermatology portion of this web site contains information regarding a selection of medical skin conditions. Discussions of the designated topics include an outline of basic treatment programs and management tips for selected diseases. Application of this information in a clinical setting with a dermatologist will be approached with the emphasis on needs of each individual.

Our goal is to provide expert skin care in a caring setting with a gentle personal touch. We take pride in what we do and our focus is always on the patient.

The philosophy of Academic Alliance in Dermatology is to provide superior, comprehensive skin care to the residents of the greater Tampa Bay Florida region. This includes intervention and resolution of skin disease, prevention of skin pathology, and creation of skin health through educating our patients.
