Affiliated Dermatology

Affiliated Dermatology is a privately held Arizona-based dermatology group that provides medical dermatology, skin cancer detection and treatment, Mohs surgery, aesthetic dermatology, pediatric dermatology, allergy services, and dermatopathology laboratory services. Founded in July 2002 by Richard L. Averitte Jr., MD, the company operates multiple clinics across the greater Phoenix metropolitan area and markets itself as a locally led, physician-driven dermatology organization. Its business is service-based rather than drug-development based, with revenue generated from outpatient clinical care, procedures, pathology, and cosmetic services. The company also operates an in-house CLIA-certified, CAP-accredited dermatopathology laboratory and has developed residency training capabilities. Affiliated Dermatology appears focused on regional expansion in Arizona, including through acquisitions of dermatology, allergy, and aesthetic practices.
