Looking for a general dermatologist to do a good skin survey. Wanting a female physician (not a PA or NP) no further than Ocala or Leesburg. Thank you for any recommendations.

Alliant Dermatology. I like Dr. Casper, but he is a man. I think Dr. Bolton is also good. A woman.

No we have a medicare advantage plan with Humana. Our first dermatologist suddenly left and our primary care physician referred us to Advanced Dermatology

I go to the one in the Villages, for 3 years now. Have yet to ever see the dermatologist herself. Was told she is usually at the Mount Dora office.

Be warned. There are not infrequent horror stories of people dying of a missed melanoma after being checked by a family doctor or a P.A. You cannot teach wisdom.

Default Female Dermatologist

I go to Dr.Valentina Bradley Kalbaugh, MD of Ocala Family Medical Center. She is incredible. Takes about 40 min to get to her office - just south of 200/College.
