Medical Dermatology
Our board-certified dermatologists diagnose and treat all skin conditions including acne, eczema, psoriasis, and skin cancer. We provide regular skin exams for early detection of melanoma and other dermatologic concerns. Our team creates personalized treatment plans combining topical and oral medications for optimal patient outcomes.
Mohs Surgery
This specialized micrographic surgery removes skin cancer with 98-99% cure rates while preserving healthy tissue. Our fellowship-trained surgeons perform same-day lab analysis and reconstructive repair. The outpatient procedure offers cost-effective treatment compared to hospital-based alternatives for basal and squamous cell carcinomas.
Cosmetic Dermatology
We offer FDA-approved treatments for facial rejuvenation including Botox, dermal fillers, chemical peels, and laser therapies. Our providers use advanced techniques like microneedling with PRP to address wrinkles, volume loss, and skin texture concerns while maintaining natural facial expressions.
Surgical Dermatology
Our team performs excisions for benign and malignant skin growths, including cysts, lipomas, and moles. We specialize in nail surgery for disorders and tumors, utilizing local anesthesia and minimally invasive techniques to ensure patient comfort during and after procedures.
Allergic Contact Dermatitis Testing
We diagnose allergic skin reactions through comprehensive patch testing for common irritants like fragrances and metals. Our providers identify specific allergens causing eczema and develop targeted treatment plans combining allergen avoidance strategies with topical or systemic medications.

I have had many dermatologists. By far Dr Velez is the best dermatologist I have ever seen. She is thorough, friendly and is always available for any concerns. The office staff is the best also. I highly recommend Dr Velez for all your dermatology issues.
