Eczema & Psoriasis Treatment
Eczema and psoriasis treatment for mild to moderate symptoms. Both are common, long-term conditions that can make skin itchy, dry, scaly, or inflamed, and a physician-led plan of topical therapy and barrier care often brings meaningful relief. When more is needed, we refer.

What it is, and what it addresses
How it works
Living with an itchy or flaking skin condition is uncomfortable and tiring. Care starts by confirming what's going on, identifying triggers, and building a routine that is simple enough to keep up.
For mild to moderate eczema or psoriasis, a plan may include prescription topical therapy when appropriate, barrier-repair skincare, and practical guidance on bathing, moisturizing, and flares.
Moderate to severe disease, involvement of large areas, or symptoms that suggest joint involvement often call for systemic or biologic medicine or phototherapy. Those patients are referred to a board-certified dermatologist, and to rheumatology when joints are involved.
Benefits
- A physician-led plan for mild to moderate eczema and psoriasis
- Prescription topical therapy when appropriate, determined at consultation

Is this right for you?
This care may be a good fit if you have:
- Itchy, dry, or inflamed patches that come and go
- Limited areas of scaly plaques on the elbows, knees, or scalp
- A known diagnosis that needs a refreshed plan for mild to moderate symptoms
- Flares you'd like help preventing and managing
- Widespread, severe, or rapidly worsening rashes, or skin that is blistering, oozing, or infected, need prompt in-person care elsewhere if we can't see you quickly
- Patients who need systemic, biologic, or light therapy are referred to a dermatologist
Candidacy is always determined during a confidential consultation.

Important disclosures
- This page is educational and is not medical advice or a diagnosis.
- Eczema and psoriasis are chronic conditions. Care aims to relieve symptoms and reduce flares and is not a cure.
- Any prescription therapy is provided only when appropriate and after individual clinical evaluation. Individual results vary.
Knowing when to refer
Part of our care is knowing when a dermatologist’s office is the right next step. Advanced or complex cases are referred to a board-certified dermatologist, and we help coordinate the handoff. We refer when we see:
- Moderate to severe eczema or psoriasis, or disease covering large areas of skin
- Need for systemic medication, biologic therapy, or phototherapy
- Joint pain, stiffness, or swelling that may suggest psoriatic arthritis (also referred to rheumatology)
- Uncertain diagnosis, or a rash that doesn't respond to a reasonable course of care
- Signs of significant infection or a rapidly spreading rash
Frequently asked questions
Do you treat advanced or severe eczema or psoriasis?
Part of our care is knowing when to refer. We focus on mild to moderate disease. Moderate to severe cases, and anyone who may need systemic, biologic, or light therapy, are referred to a board-certified dermatologist's office, and we help coordinate the handoff.
Can eczema or psoriasis be cured?
No. Both are long-term conditions, but many people achieve good control and fewer flares with consistent care.
Can you help with scalp psoriasis?
Often, yes. Mild to moderate scalp psoriasis can usually be managed with topical treatments and medicated shampoos. Your provider will recommend what is appropriate.
Are topical steroids safe?
Used as directed, for the right length of time and on the right areas, topical steroids are a well-established treatment. Your provider will explain how to use them and may use non-steroid options where they fit.
What if my joints hurt too?
Joint pain, stiffness, or swelling alongside psoriasis can be a sign of psoriatic arthritis. Please mention it; we will refer you to a dermatologist and rheumatologist for evaluation.
