The Medical Practice

Our practice of dermatology and skin surgery is dedicated to the effective and ethical medical care of all skin conditions. The dermatologist is trained to evaluate and treat, by medical and surgical means, diseases of the skin, hair and nails. The skin is prone to a wide variety of conditions, including infections, allergies and growths - both benign and malignant.

Additionally, there are disorders that are found only on the skin, such as acne, eczema, and psoriasis. Proper examination and history taking by the trained dermatologist can almost always pin point the cause, and nature of the condition. This leads to appropriate and cost-effective remedies for the patient.

We also proudly welcome the addition of Dr. Raj Varma to our practice. He is a board-certified dermatologist and the first and only fellowship-trained Mohs surgeon in the New Bern area, including Beaufort, Carteret, Craven, Duplin, Jones, Lenoir, Onslow, and Pamlico counties.

More information about the various medical conditions discussed here can be found at the American Academy of Dermatology.
