A: A direct-care dermatology practice operates under a model where the dermatologists and patients interact directly without the involvement of insurance companies.

A: We do not currently offer memberships. Patients pay only for the services that they need, including evaluation and treatment.

If you have out-of-network benefits, we recommend contacting your insurance provider for detailed information on coverage and reimbursement procedures.
