You've found them! Dr. Taylor and Lexy Hazle, PA-C have extensive experience treating conditions common to skin of color.

At your first appointment, we'll take a look at your symptoms and complete a thorough assessment. We'll run through a few questions (like when your symptoms started and what treatments you're currently using). If needed, we'll send off samples for definitive answers on what's causing your skin concerns. Depending on your skin's needs, we may diagnose the issue in this session and recommend a treatment plan going forward.

Certified dermatology PAs are not doctors, but they receive an in-depth general medical and surgical education. They are trained and licensed to evaluate, diagnosis and treat a broad variety of skin conditions (medically and surgically). They also perform screening exams, preventive care and education for dermatologic patients and families.

 

PAs are certified to:

  • Take medical histories, diagnose skin conditions, create treatment plans, and prescribe medicine
  • Perform skin cancer screening exams
  • Order and interpret tests
  • Perform biopsies, wide excisions, and cryotherapy
  • Perform non-invasive cosmetic procedures
