Pediatric Dermatologist in West Palm Beach, FL
At Integrated Dermatology of West Palm Beach, we understand the concern parents have for their infant, child, or adolescent’s sensitive skin. Whether your child is suffering with eczema, acne, or warts, we take all disorders of the skin seriously as they can lead to a loss of sleep, irritability and can negatively impact a child’s self-esteem, social confidence, and academic performance.
The providers at Integrated Dermatology of West Palm Beach understand that treating children can be challenging and anxiety inducing for both the patient and their parents. Our physician assistant, Kristen Hafner has raised two children from infancy while working in our dermatology practice. She enjoys treating children and prides herself in her ability to reassure and calm children during medical procedures. She believes that gaining the trust of a young child is the key to a successful and non-traumatic office visit.
