We diagnose and treat all types of dermatologic conditions, including acne, eczema, psoriasis, and skin cancer. Our board-certified dermatologist provides personalized treatment plans using evidence-based medicine. Patients benefit from early detection and management of chronic skin diseases.

Ellacor removes excess skin microscopically to reduce wrinkles and sagging. The procedure requires no incisions and delivers natural-looking results. Patients enjoy visible improvements in facial contours with minimal downtime.

Wish I could give zero, or even negative stars. They were perfectly fine with taking my money, but didn't help me at all. They absolutely did not care. Maybe I was just really unlucky, because I honestly don't know how they have any business based on my own terrible experience.

I have recently referred my parents to this practice and changed my daughter from another Savannah dermatologist to Dermatology Associates. The office makes scheduling easy and the wait time for appointments is reasonable. The doctors provide thorough examinations and follow-up to assure their prescribed treatment is effective. I highly recommend this practice.

My entire family has seen Dr Collins and his staff for the last 12 years. I'm in the medical field and there is no one that I would trust my family's dermatological care with beyond Dr. Collins and his staff. Our appointments are never rushed, very thorough and I can honestly say that in my 12 years in the field Dr Collins has the best bedside manner hands down. He and his staff are great with my wife and I, as well as our young boys. We would never think of going anywhere else. Great practice, doctor and staff!
