About Derick Dermatology
Derick Dermatology was first established near Chicago and they have opened multiple locations since then. They have locations in Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, Naperville, Barrington, Burr Ridge, Libertyville, Oak Brook, Boiling Brook, Elgin, McHenry, Skokie, and the city of Geneva in Illinois which will be opening in June of 2021.
While their impressive history is important, their future vision is equally valuable. Derick Dermatology has several board-certified dermatologists who are dedicated to their professions. These professionals are always looking for new ways to improve results, reduce recovery time, and bring a sense of satisfaction to their patients. Because of their dedication, Derick Dermatology can offer a host of medical and cosmetic treatments including treatments for acne, rash, and skin cancer. They also offer Mohs Micrographic surgery, skin cancer excision, and cosmetic treatments such as Botox, filler, laser hair removal, tattoo removal, and body contouring.
The staff at Derik Dermatology are highly decorated, dedicated professionals who offer several services to children and adults. When stepping into their offices patients feel invited, seen, and valued. As evidence of their dedication to patient satisfaction, Derick Dermatology has received over 36,000 5-star reviews and 98% of patients say they would refer a friend!
Providing excellent service that works with people’s busy lives is a big part of patient care. Therefore, Derick Dermatology offers expanded weekday hours, Saturday hours and even telemedicine services. Not everyone is available during ‘standard’ business hours and over the past several months telemedicine services have been even more important. Fortunately, Derick Dermatology was up to the task of caring for its patients remotely. Appointments are quickly and easily made through their Telehealth online portal and most insurance policies cover telemedicine services.
The people of Geneva will find that Derick Dermatology fits in well with their own sense of history, vision, and family and you may be wondering, “When should I consider making a dermatology appointment?”
Derick Dermatology encourages annual skin checkups and skin cancer screenings for everyone. Caught early, most types of skin cancer can be treated quickly and many of the earliest stages of skin cancer are missed by lay-people. However, a dermatology specialist knows exactly what to look for and can often catch and treat skin cancer that would otherwise be missed.
Beyond skin cancer concerns there is the general health and well-being of your skin to consider. Skin performs the function of protecting your internal organs, preventing infection, and warding off bacteria, fungi, viruses, and environmental hazards like smog. In fact, skin reactions can often be signs of internal problems such as lupus, allergies, cancers, or liver disease.
A dermatologist can diagnose and treat your skin. They can identify symptoms on your skin that could be signs of underlying health conditions as well as perform cosmetic corrections when needed or desired. As you can see, caring for your skin is about more than just looking good (although it’s about that, too). Your skin provides a first line of defense for your overall health and an early warning system for underlying conditions and thereby should be properly maintained.
