Dermatology
At Yale Medicine Dermatology, we deliver a level of expertise that sets a new standard in skin health. Our physicians diagnose and treat benign and malignant skin disorders, as well as manage complex chronic skin diseases with compassion. We specialize in microscopically controlled incisions, particularly for high-risk skin cancers, ensuring the highest standards of safety and efficacy.
Our in-house dermatopathology lab facilitates the prompt processing of biopsies, delivering timely and accurate results. We are distinguished by our specialized clinics that provide tailored care for patients with unique dermatological needs, including those with organ transplants, lymphoma, and other intricate skin conditions.
Your patients can receive early access to new treatments and therapies discovered by researchers at Yale. This includes the exploration of new technologies such as photopheresis for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma and graft-versus-host disease. We also offer advanced therapies for patients with resistant dermatologic illness, which can affect the whole skin surface.
