Barbara,

Most white doctors and dermatologists have little to no interest in healing the issues that our sensitive, beautiful skin.

If you need assistance in the NJ area, I know a perfect doctor - she's one of us, and does a great job.

Barbara, I couldn't find a location directly in your area, but you might consider paying a visit to The Dermatology Group's Psoriasis and Eczema Center. They are not in your area but have several locations in NJ. If this is not convenient, you might want to call them and ask if they have recommendations for dermatologists who cater to ethnic skin in particular. Good luck.

How do I find a dermatologist who specializes in Black skin? I have eczema and the white doctors have not been able to help me much. I live in Newark NJ.

Sierra, eczema usually manifests itself as extremely red, itchy, dry skin. It might burn at times, and more severe forms of the condition can result in blistering and oozing. Generally, the predominant symptom is itching. Eczema can really occur anywhere on the body, but on adults it's most often found on the elbows, ankles, knees, face and neck. If you suspect you might be suffering from eczema, consult your dermatologist for a firm diagnosis. In the meantime, be sure to keep your skin well moisturized with a soothing hydrating lotion, such as Aveeno.
