Pediatric Dermatology

Brown Health Medical Group offers comprehensive pediatric dermatology care for infants, children, and young adults. Our team diagnoses, treats, and manages a variety of pediatric skin, hair, and nail diseases and conditions — from the most common to the rare and complex.

Conditions We Treat

Our pediatric dermatologists work closely with providers at Hasbro Children’s to care for children with many types of dermatologic conditions, including inflammatory, infectious, genetic, and vascular disorders.

We also collaborate with community pediatricians and colleagues in pediatric plastic surgery, general pediatric surgery, neonatology, otolaryngology — ear, nose, and throat (ENT) care, pediatric ophthalmology, genetics, pediatric cardiology, pediatric imaging, and interventional radiology to provide comprehensive care.

What to Expect at Your Visit

When you arrive, our front desk staff will check you in. Please have a copy of your insurance card as well as a photo ID. If you have not completed the new patient paperwork prior to arrival, we will have you fill it out prior to check in. If you have completed your paperwork, it will speed up your check-in process as we will collect the forms when you arrive. A medical assistant will help you get settled into your examination room and confirm your information. As we provide services at a teaching hospital, you may be seen by a physician in training prior to seeing the attending physician.

Laser Services for Vascular Conditions 

The pediatric dermatology team at Hasbro Children’s offers one of the region’s most comprehensive programs for the laser treatment of vascular anomalies. Using the most technologically advanced lasers, our experienced team ensures the safest and most comfortable patient experience.
