Acne is the most common skin condition in the United States. Most people experience acne problems during their adolescent years but grow out of it by adulthood. However, acne can continue throughout adulthood as well. This condition causes blemishes to appear on the skin. Pimples and blackheads appear most frequently on the face, neck, chest, back, and shoulders.
Psoriasis is a skin condition that can last for your entire life. This condition can cause a lot of discomfort for patients. Not only can it be hard to treat, but it can leave patients feeling self-conscious and embarrassed by their skin. Psoriasis is often characterized by patches of red, dry, scaly skin that is whitish and very itchy.
Having redness on your face is not uncommon. When people become flushed or blush their face can appear red, but some people constantly have redness to the face that starts to spread. This is known as Rosacea. This skin condition has many signs and symptoms that affect the appearance and feel of the skin.

The staff were all friendly and put me at ease. The medical assistant was friendly, efficient and very good with a needle - I felt almost nothing.
Dr. Krathen was thorough and explained the condition and treatment simply. He did a thorough check of areas beyond the reason for my visit.
I couldn't have been happier, or more reassured by my visit.

They made me feel comfortable with hope of obtaining a cure for my complex issues through their treatments. I will recommend them to anyone with skin related problems.

New patient at this office and had a great experience - clean and organized office, short wait time, efficient front desk service, did not feel rushed out, thorough explanations of all treatment options. On top of it Brooke and Dr. Krathen both made me feel very welcomed and comfortable. I am confident in the care I am receiving and look forward to the results they bring.

After my Dermatologist retired I needed to find a new one and Dr. Krathen/Essential Dermatology was highly recommended to me. My first visit yesterday could not have been better. The appointment was ON TIME, quick and efficient and addressed my needs and questions with complete professionalism. The office was extremely clean and all of the staff wore masks the entire time. When it comes to skin care, it is comforting to know that I have a new team that I can trust. I would recommend them to anyone!!
