EMAIL Roberta F. Palestine, MD
At the Dermatology & Clinical Skin Care Center and Rockledge Med Spa, treatment of the skin, however superficial, is based on a deep and systemic understanding of the body.
The extensive professional experience of our Board-certified dermatologists in the subtleties of skin disease and conditions, and their sensitivity to the physical and emotional comforts of patients, have earned the Dermatology Center a long-standing reputation as one of the most widely respected dermatological groups in the U.S.
Our Center brings together dermatologists, a plastic surgeon, estheticians and a medical spa all under one roof!
Our full-service Center offers our clients a wide array of available aesthetic, rejuvenation, and medical treatment options. We have a cooperative teamwork approach, further enabling us to customize a treatment plan for each patient.
In recent years, our focus has been on minimal to no-downtime procedures. This has been made possible by advances in technology, resulting in much gentler procedures that are still very effective in reversing the signs of aging.
Our philosophy is to help people look their personal best
By limiting interruption to their daily lives. We want our clients to look better in a subtle, natural way, resulting in nothing “too drastic”. This is evidenced when our patients get compliments about how good they look, without anyone realizing that any procedure was done. The effect is “organic”, as if you’ve been on vacation and are now more relaxed and refreshed. As a result, you feel more self-confident about your appearance.

"Patients have commented on how well I listen. I think that's very important in customizing treatment for each individual patient. I find it satisfying to help people optimize their appearance, because when people look better it makes them feel better and therefore enhances their self-esteem and self-confidence."
