Skin diseases and conditions often result in social and emotional concerns, as well as physical discomfort and disfigurement. Since skin diseases occur in combination with other medical conditions, Dr. Bikowski and his physician assistant are trained not only in diseases of the skin but also in a broad range of medical fields. This training includes; internal medicine, allergy, endocrinology, surgery, gynecology, pathology, pediatrics, infectious disease, urology, gastroenterology, gerontology, rheumatology, and psychiatry as they relate to the skin.

They are, therefore, well qualified to diagnose the possible existence of internal disease by the presence of specific skin signs. Because of training and specialization, skin diseases and conditions can be diagnosed more quickly and less expensively by the Dermatologist than by other health care providers. Here is a list of the areas of the body often requiring dermatological care: Scalp Eyelids Mouth Fingers Toenails Knees Hair Ears Gums Fingernails Genitals Arms Face Nose Tongue Feet Trunk Legs Eyebrows Lips Hands Toes Elbows.
