Center For Dermatology & Laser Surgery
Welcome to the Pacific Northwest's most comprehensive skin health center. The Center for Dermatology and Laser Surgery offers a health care team led by two board-certified dermatologists who are dedicated to providing compassionate, patient-centered dermatology care, and who offer a wide range of cutting-edge treatments.

As dermatologists, we have the unique expertise needed to diagnose and treat the largest organ of your body - your skin. I'm blessed with exceptional health care, and the most excellent, caring, professional and great givers of peace-of-mind are Center for Dermatology people. They take wonderful care of my needs and always let me know I am a person of worth instead of just a number on a medical file.
Services
We are pleased to now offer telehealth (video visits) with our providers, so you and your family can be evaluated by the provider in the comfort of your own home. Call, text or email our office to schedule an appointment. A member of our staff will verify your information and collect your copay (if applicable).
Dermatologists are trained to treat patients of all ages, from newborns to the elderly. This includes the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of problems of the skin, hair, and nails. Conditions common among children are moles and birthmarks, dermatitis, acne, warts, vitiligo, insect bites, and birth defects.
All good medical treatments begin with a thorough evaluation, and this is certainly true for quality dermatology care. The skin is the body's largest organ, and healthy skin is important for overall health and well-being. Skin doctors perform medical dermatology evaluations to examine patients' skin and develop treatment plans for a wide variety of skin conditions, skin infections, and diseases.
Rashes are eruptions in the skin that can take many different forms. Redness, itching and scaling are the most common symptoms that one may experience, however burning, pain, blisters, pustules, weeping, and welts may also occur. Some rashes have an infectious cause, some are due to allergic reactions, and others may be a symptom of an underlying medical condition.
Hair loss, or alopecia, is a troubling affliction for men and women of all ages, including children. It may present as thinning of the scalp hair, or as patches that are completely bald. Shedding may occur suddenly or slowly over time. Hair loss may accompany changes to the underlying skin of the scalp, but in many cases it does not.

I didn’t have to wait long to see the doctor and the staff are friendly. I came in to have a couple of moles frozen and had some other Qs. Everything was taken care of quickly and in one visit.

Everyone there is so friendly, and it's a beautiful and comfortable office. Dr. Rydzik is warm and caring, she listens carefully to patient concerns, she demonstrates knowledge and expertise, and I appreciated the way she drew connections between different body systems and managed my care holistically. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Welsch has helped me through my first mascne breakout, dark spots and now hormonal acne with great results. He is very knowledgeable and was able to address all of my concerns each time.

Professional, friendly staff made this a quick, efficient, thorough and pleasant experience! Be sure to give yourself at least 15 extra minutes so you have time to find them properly in the maze of St. Vincent's hospital.

Joe is the best! He takes the time to explain everything and made me feel comfortable about any procedures before they took place. I've worked with Gene in the PDT department and he has been so accommodating. Front office staff is always friendly and able to answer any questions I have.

Andrea is so sweet and just great at what she does. This was my 3rd session and they had upgraded their laser to the latest model. I'm really sensitive to the pain of the laser hair removal process, and this newer laser hurt less and the procedure went quicker.

I’ve been a patient here for about four years and I can’t say enough about the quality care I’ve received. I was skeptical at first, since the diagnosis for my skin issues was drastically different than 15 years of dermatology visits in NYC and LA. The proof is in the drastic improvement in the way my skin looks and feels. Truly a quality of life improvement. If they recommend a patch test for skin irritation, listen and don’t wait like I did. They have really changed the way I care for my skin. They are not pushy about the products or elective services that they provide on site, but it
