Before you book

How do I find a Black dermatologist in Washington, DC?

No Washington, DC practice here has publicly described itself as Black-owned yet. Every practice on this page documents care for Black skin and hair. We never guess anyone's race: that label appears only when a practice states it.

What should I ask before booking?
  • Does the dermatologist regularly treat your condition in Black skin or textured hair?
  • Do they take your insurance, and are they accepting new patients?
  • For hair loss: do they examine the scalp closely and do biopsies when needed?
