Dermatologist
 

Can someone please recommend a good dermatologist. We just got here a couple weeks ago and my husband has developed a rash on his arms that are very itchy. Like red bumps here and there and very itchy. No idea what the cause is hence the need for a dermatologist we can try and get in...and fairly quickly.

It is a rental house we are staying in ....... hopefully not bed bugs. Have never seen reports of these critters here in the Villages and this is a fairly new house we are staying in....2014.

Suggestions and thanks in advance

KathieI is right on. I also use Dr. Casper. Give them a call.

I see Dr. Tran of Village Dermatology next to Laurel Manor Rec Center or his PA Phil Walker.

Go with Dr. Casper.

I, doubt you will get right in seeing the doctor, PA maybe. Dermatologist I have found really hard to get quick appointment. Good luck.

Bed bugs can show up any where people come and go. Bites are typically in a row, almost resembling welts. I've heard Vicks vaporub can help soothe them.

Check the mattress around the seams for red spots or you could actually see the bugs. If you find them in the rental, wash and dry all laundry in hottest water possible and move out asap! Dr. Casper is very good.

Hope he feels better. If you have a pet, check for fleas.

Hmmm!...Could this be Shingles???????
 

I'm with Kathie, See Dr. Casper, Sante Fe Station on 466.... Dr. Casper did a follow up with a phone call to check-up on the "ole boy", imagine a Dr. that calls to check-up on his patients...Wow!:bigbow:

I think if you had bed bugs, u would have the itchy bumps like your husband does. It is possible the red bumps are from no see ums (tiny almost invisible flying insect). They have been biting on me for the past month. I know this sounds nutty but turn the hair dryer on (hot) and hold it as close as possible to the itchy places and leave for 15-20 seconds. Do not burn yourself, just let it be as hot as u can take it for those seconds. IT WORKS! U might have to repeat in a few hours, but it removes the itch. Hope it helps.

Dr. Casper saved my life. I've been going to him now for 2 and 1/2 years. Very pleased.

Another vote for Dr. Casper

Does anyone know if Dr. Casper uses cryotherapy?

Yes. He does.

I emailed Dr. Casper's office to ask that question a few days ago and heard nothing.
That's why I asked the question on TOTV.
However I did hear back from his office today - they said Dr. Casper doesn't use cryotherapy.
Are you sure that his office uses cryotherapy? Perhaps they misunderstood my question.
