Medical Care in a Spa Setting

Founded in 1997, Long Ridge Dermatology provides expert dermatological care for adults, adolescents and children. Skin problems can be unsightly … uncomfortable … even unhealthy. A wide variety of factors including environmental conditions, allergies, viruses, bacteria and more can cause chronic and acute skin diseases and conditions. Trained at top New York City academic medical institutions, our physicians are skilled at diagnosing and treating dermatological problems for all members of the family.

• Moh’s Surgery
  Mohs surgery, used to treat a variety of skin cancers, including the two most common skin cancers — basal and squamous cell carcinoma — offers the best advantage for complete tumor removal, since it performed with microscopic confirmation and precise mapping of the tumor edge.
• Acne
  We are expert at treating acne which can occur at any age. For the best treatments available, consult with our physicians to develop a program best suited for your specific skin and condition.
• Skin Cancer Detection and Prevention
  Skin cancer prevention is a priority at Long Ridge Dermatology. Skin cancer remains the most common cancer in this country – but early detection, prompt treatment and proactive preventive care can significantly reduce incidence and improve outcome. We recommend regular total body skin exams for all patients and we also recommend specialized sunscreen products that provide the best possible UVA/UVB sunscreen protection.
