The skin is the body's largest organ; therefore, dermatology is arguably medicine’s largest specialty.

Dermatology encompasses all medical, surgical, and cosmetic issues of the body's surface, fat layers, and mucous membranes such as the mouth, hair, nails, and sweat and oil glands. Our board-certified dermatologists with the Benson Dermatology staff of certified nurse practitioners and physician assistants offer diagnostic acumen and expert care for the wide array of rashes, allergies, acne, infections, warts, molluscums, and growths that present themselves everyday in our practice. Benson Dermatology is here to offer the prevention, detection, and treatment of your skin concerns and diseases.

Benson Dermatology is dedicated to serving the dermatological needs of our Northshore communities, Baton Rouge, New Orleans, and the Gulf South areas.
