The Dermatology Clinic is located in the CHA Somerville Campus Highland Building, 236 Highland Ave. Please park in the Highland Lot at the bottom of the hill. 

If you have a skin problem, the dermatology team at CHA can provide expert care. Our providers will listen carefully, answer your questions, and make sure you understand every step of your care and treatment plan, whether it’s for a lesion or rash, a condition like acne or psoriasis, a skin cancer, or other issue.

Personalized, expert care

You can count on excellent care at CHA, from providers who work as a team and love what they do. All of our providers are highly qualified, and some speak fluent Spanish and Vietnamese.

Now with tele-dermatology

At CHA, we use tele-dermatology to reduce waiting times. This lets you or your CHA primary care team can take pictures of your skin issue and send them to us in MyCHArt.

Just make an appointment with your primary care team, tell them about your skin concern, and they can send the photos to one of our dermatologists to review.

We'll get back to your provider within 48 hours and let them know if the problem is something they can treat or something you should come see us. If you do need to come to Dermatology, we’ll get you an appointment as soon as possible.
