Finding the Right Dermatologist

As your body’s largest organ, the skin provides vital protection from the environment and serves as a barrier against infection. It is also the first physical characteristic that other people notice about you. You can protect the health of your skin by consulting with a qualified dermatologist. As with any medical professional, you will need to find one near you who can treat the issues that you are experiencing.

If you are looking for a well-trained and experienced dermatologist that knows the latest and greatest techniques in the field and offers a variety of treatments and services for you to choose from, look no further than the team at Metro Dermatology.

One of the best ways to make sure that you are getting the highest-quality treatment possible is to see a dermatologist who is board-certified. Certification from the American Academy of Dermatology means that the doctor has completed a three-year residency in dermatology, as well as a rigorous exam. To maintain the certification, the dermatologist must also attend continuing education classes and be recertified on a regular basis. The fact that all of our dermatologists are board-certified emphasizes their commitment to their field and their patients.

You are sure to want a dermatologist who is understanding and who takes the time to thoroughly evaluate your condition. When you feel comfortable with the doctor, this will make it easier to speak with him or her about your problems and concerns. While you are looking for a balance of rapport and expertise, you should place more emphasis on credentials and successful treatment results. However, the doctor’s bedside manner is also important. Our medical professionals know how to explain things to patients in a way that is simple and easy to understand. This helps you to know exactly what to expect regarding your treatment and your results.

While finding the right dermatologist for you can be a challenge and may seem overwhelming at first, it is important for you to receive the best skin care treatment available. At Metro Dermatology, we strive to provide you with the highest-quality medical and cosmetic dermatology treatments. We have locations in Elmhurst, Flushing, Englewood and the Bronx.
