The 17 Best Dermatologists in Scottsdale (2026)

Scottsdale pairs a resort town's cosmetic appetite with desert sun that dermatologists take seriously — the same offices doing lasers and injectables along the Shea and Gainey Ranch corridors are performing daily skin-cancer screenings, because Arizona's melanoma rates demand it. It makes this one of the easiest markets in the country to find a practice genuinely strong on both sides. Below, Scottsdale's top-rated dermatology practices ranked by Google rating weighted by review volume.

How we ranked these: by public Google rating weighted by review volume (a Bayesian average), as of 2026. This list is editorial and not influenced by payment. Always confirm current credentials, availability, and pricing directly with each practice.

Medical vs. cosmetic dermatology

Dermatologists handle two kinds of visits. Medical dermatology covers skin checks, changing moles, acne, eczema, psoriasis, and rashes; cosmetic dermatology covers lasers, injectables, and skin-quality treatments. Most practices above do both, but book the right visit type, and see a dermatologist promptly for any mole that is changing in size, shape, or colour, a spot that bleeds or won't heal, or a new growth. Those are screening visits, not cosmetic consultations, and they should never wait behind one.
