Dermatology Care for Veterans

Respectful care, close to home.

Alpha Dermatology welcomes veterans at our Sellersville and New Hope offices. Whether you are concerned about a changing spot, a persistent rash, or an ongoing skin condition, our team takes time to understand your history and explain your options.

Our independent practice is led by board-certified dermatologist Dr. Daniel I. Shrager. We work with veterans seeking dermatology care through VA referrals and encourage you to contact us about current participation and appointment availability.

Care for your skin concerns

We evaluate acne, eczema, psoriasis, contact dermatitis, skin infections, pigment changes, and new or changing growths. We also provide skin cancer evaluations and discuss appropriate treatment when needed.

Your history matters. Tell us about symptoms, prior treatments, medications, and exposures that concern you so we can consider them as part of your evaluation.

Understanding VA Community Care

The Veterans Choice Program ended in 2019 and was replaced by the Veterans Community Care Program. If you plan to use VA benefits for a routine appointment with a community provider, your VA health care team must first approve the referral.

Eligibility, the approved provider, covered services, and the duration of care depend on your VA referral and authorization. An appointment booked directly with our office does not by itself establish VA coverage.

Getting ready for your appointment

Start by asking your VA health care team about a dermatology referral. Confirm that Alpha Dermatology is an approved option for your care, then contact our office or work with the VA team to arrange your appointment.

Before your visit, make sure you have your authorization information and understand the services and dates it covers. Bring your medication list and any relevant records or requested documents. Additional visits or treatment may require further VA approval.
