Complex Medical Dermatology in Tucson
Some skin conditions are difficult to identify, do not respond to initial treatment, or occur alongside another medical illness. Willow Dermatology offers physician-led evaluation of complex skin disease, with attention to your symptoms, previous care, and overall health.
A consultation may be helpful when a rash persists, a diagnosis remains uncertain, or an established skin condition needs a more detailed treatment plan.
Conditions That Need a Closer Look
Our complex medical dermatology services include evaluation of:
Autoimmune and blistering skin disorders
Skin changes associated with rheumatologic and connective-tissue diseases
Vasculitis and other inflammatory disorders affecting blood vessels in the skin
Granulomatous, neutrophilic, and other systemic inflammatory skin conditions
Medication-related skin reactions and concerns associated with cancer treatment or transplantation
Persistent or recurrent skin disease that has been difficult to diagnose or manage
Building a Clearer Diagnosis
Your visit begins with a review of the problem: when it started, which areas are affected, whether symptoms occur elsewhere in the body, and how the condition has responded to previous treatments. Your dermatologist may review photographs, pathology reports, laboratory results, and notes from other clinicians.
Depending on the findings, additional testing or a skin biopsy may help clarify the diagnosis. When skin findings may be related to another medical condition, your care plan can include discussion with the clinicians already involved in your treatment.
A Treatment Plan That Considers Your Health
Treatment depends on the diagnosis, severity, medical history, and medication risks. We discuss the purpose of each recommended treatment, how to use it, what monitoring may be needed, and when to reassess progress. For chronic conditions, follow-up provides an opportunity to adjust the plan as your symptoms and needs change.
Medical Expertise and Medication Knowledge
Dr. Mahdieh Jedlowski and Dr. Mohammad Fazel have backgrounds in both medicine and pharmacy, along with experience caring for complex inflammatory and autoimmune skin disease. This training informs their attention to diagnosis, medication safety, and treatment planning.
What to Bring to a Consultation
Bring your current medication list, prior biopsy and laboratory reports, treatment history, and the names of other clinicians involved in your care. If you are being referred, ask the referring office to send relevant records through our office's referral process.
