A little glimpse into Dr. Patel’s world outside the office ✈️🚲

He is spending quality time with his family and kicking off an unforgettable adventure. From biking through Buenos Aires to boating the Tigre Delta and taking in the beautiful flora, his path next leads him to Ushuaia where he will board an expedition ship to Antarctica.

It is that time of year when schedules get busy and insurance benefits quietly reset. If you have FSA dollars left, this is your reminder to put them to good use before they expire.

Your FSA can be used toward many of your dermatology needs at True Dermatology. Think annual skin checks, follow up visits, treatment of concerning spots, and new patient consultations. These are all important appointments that help you stay ahead of your skin health.

Booking now means you avoid the holiday rush and walk into the new year with peace of mind knowing you took care of yourself.

📲 Call us at 205-624-2100 or schedule online at truedermatology.com

Your yearly skin check helps us catch changes early, even the ones that are easy to miss on your own. Skin cancer often starts quietly, which is why having a dermatologist look over your skin once a year matters just as much as your annual physical.

A simple visit can give you clarity, reassurance, and real support for your long term health. If you have not had your skin checked this year, we would love to help you take that step. Schedule your appointment online at truedermatology.com or by calling our office at 205-624-2100

If your skin’s been feeling extra dry lately, you’re not imagining it. Cooler air and indoor heat can throw your skin barrier out of balance fast.

💧 Keep your glow this season:
→ Switch to a thicker moisturizer
→ Take short, lukewarm showers (sorry, steam lovers!)
→ Don’t skip your SPF, even when it’s cloudy

If dry, itchy skin has been bothering you this fall, our providers can help you find relief. Schedule an appointment to address your dry skin concerns and get expert care tailored to you.

📲 Call us at 205-624-2100or visit truedermatology.com to schedule.
