All new dermatology patients are scheduled for a full 30-minute medical dermatology appointment with Dr. Miguel Villacorta to allow sufficient time to review medical history, perform a full-body skin examination, and address all dermatological concerns. Follow-up appointments for a skin condition are scheduled for 15 minutes, but the longer 30-minute appointment can be scheduled if you want more time with Dr. Villacorta.
For patients interested in personalized primary care, our concierge practice offers a free introductory discovery call with Dr. Stella Villacorta. To ensure high-quality care and attention, Dr. Stella Villacorta limits the number of patients in her practice Concierge medicine patients receive a comprehensive one-hour introductory visit and full physical exam. This visit includes a thorough evaluation of medical history, medications, vaccinations, family history, genetic predispositions, and lifestyle factors such as mental health, sleep, diet, and exercise.
Treatment
After your consultation, we’ll build a treatment plan based on your needs and goals. At Galt Dermatology & Concierge Medicine you are seen by a board-certified physician—not by a nurse practitioner or a physician assistant. In our practice, you will always interact, be cared for, and be advised by a physician specifically trained in the field of dermatology.

We facilitate a seamless transition to one of our trusted community physicians, working hand in hand with them throughout the process.
