Pediatric Dermatology (Children skin, nail and hair disease diagnosis and treatment)

Pediatric dermatology is a sub-specialty of dermatology that diagnoses and treats skin, hair, and nail conditions in children. A child’s skin is different from an adult’s, so pediatric dermatologists choose treatments with its unique needs and any possible side effects in mind.

At DISHARC, Dr. Smita Joshi leads our pediatric dermatology services.

Support for Parents and Caregivers
