If you’re one of the estimated 14 million Americans with the skin condition called rosacea, you know how debilitating its symptoms can be. Rosacea, which usually emerges on the face, is characterized by redness, swelling, enlarged blood vessels, and acne-like pimples and bumps. The condition probably has a genetic component, for it tends to run in families. It’s also exacerbated by sun exposure.
There is no cure for rosacea, but its symptoms can be successfully treated. Laser therapy can remove unseemly blood vessels and reduce redness and flushing. Oral and topical medications, including antibiotics, can help control the acne-like symptoms. Without treatment, symptoms worsen and flare-ups become more frequent. So seek out the care of a qualified physician today. Call for a personal evaluation and to learn more about your treatment choices for this stubborn but very manageable skin disorder.

Dr. Derick is wonderful. My daughter has severe eczema and I went to Dr. Derick after numerous dissapointing, unsuccesful visits to her pediatrican (& others), and a bad flare up of my daughters eczema. We arrived to a very clean, impressive office, with very polite and professional staff. We were taken into a room where a nurse evaluated my daughter. It did take a while for Dr. Derick to finally get to our room, but once she came in, I was very pleased with the outcome. She was very detailed in her explanation of eczema, and explained more about it than any other doctor had that I met with. She diagnosed my daughter (confirming eczema), and suggested ways in which I could reduce the eczema. Again, at the time of my visit, my daughter had a severe flare up and we didn't know what to do anymore...we were at our wit's end. She gave us a few Rx's, gave us very detailed instructions & "tricks", and by the next day, my daughter's flare up was significantly decreased. I am so pleased with her, and when necessary, I will continue to go back.
