At Mays Dermatology, every visit is with the Double Board-Certified Dermatologist as we believe your skin care should only be in the hands of an experienced and fully trained expert of the skin. In today’s world there are so many “skin specialists” with little knowledge of medicine. Most of these specialists are NOT physicians but purely aestheticians , designated personnel with online “training”, or staff working under vague supervision of doctors who do not study and specialize in the SKIN. We believe that the ONLY true skin specialist is a BOARD CERTIFIED DERMATOLOGIST. Dr. Mays feels passionate about educating the public about this as many do not realize that the only physicians who are specifically trained in conditions of skin, hair and nails are Dermatologists. A Board-Certified Dermatologist is a Medical Doctor (MD) who attends 4 years of medical school, followed by 4 years of rigorous specialized Dermatology training in residency which is the most competitive residency in the nation. Dermatology is the specialty of all conditions of skin, hair, and nails. The physician is awarded their Board Certification by the American Board of Dermatology after passing an intensive national examination. This esteemed certification is the ONLY official national certification for Dermatology training and assures your physician is fully trained in Medical, Surgical and Cosmetic Dermatology. Look for the ABD SEAL.
Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD). This title is only awarded to Board Certified Dermatologist.
At Mays Dermatology, we believe in seeing your Dermatologist for your skin condition as soon as it appears. Dermatology is a highly in demand specialty and very time sensitive. Due to the shortage of fully Board-Certified Dermatologists, many patients are forced to see non-specialists, non-physicians, and urgent care centers for their skin condition. This can lead to mis-diagnosis, inappropriate treatment, and increased healthcare costs. In addition many patients receive their “skin care recommendations” from department stores, spas, aestheticians, and other non Board Certified Dermatologists. We believe in providing access to everyone with same day appointments for treatment of your skin condition or cosmetic evaluation.
“If you assess the patient’s skin correctly, you can then customize the correct and most effective treatment. In my opinion this task is a specialized task requiring years of training that only Board Certified Dermatologists receive. “

Unlike other “spas”, all cosmetic consultations are performed by the Double Board Certified Dermatologist and tailored to prevent, maintain, and correct based on proper assessment. We do not believe in a cookie cutter approach to anti-aging and treat the patient as a “whole”. Dr. May’s goal as a Board Certified Dermatologist is to correct AND prevent. Therefore all our recommendations and procedures are aimed at long term benefits (not temporary) and prevention of going under the knife. As opposed to other “aesthetic practices”, ALL our injections are performed by Dr. Mays herself who lectures nationally on injection technique, facial anatomy, and cosmetic procedures.
Despite many prescription medications used in Dermatology being generic, some are still very expensive for patients based on insurance plan. At Mays Dermatology we offer a variety of the commonly prescribed prescription medications at our office for reasonable or below market prices, avoiding long lines at the pharmacy. We believe access to medication improves compliance and efficacy. Call our office to learn about our generic prescription drugs available to you.
