Services
Dermatology Associates of Western Connecticut, P.C., was started in Danbury in 1979. Our main office and administrative center is now located in Newtown. In addition, we have full-time offices in New Milford, Ridgefield, and Southbury. Our offices are open six days a week and evening hours are available.
Skin cancers are the most common type of cancer can be highly curable with early detection and treatment. Our physicians are highly skilled in the detection and diagnosis of skin cancers and we offer a wide array of treatment options for our patients. The two most common types of skin cancer are Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) and Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) which can be treated in our office with procedures such as electrodessication and curettage (scraping and cauterization) or surgical excision.Depending on the size and location of the skin cancer, your dermatologist may recommend that you are treated with Mohs surgery in our office by our experienced Mohs surgeon, Dr. Kimberly Eickhorst.
Mohs micrographic surgery is a specialized surgical technique for removing skin cancer. It was developed in the 1930's by its originator, Frederic E. Mohs, MD and has been refined into the most effective treatment for skin cancer to date. Mohs is performed by a dermatologist that is trained in surgery, pathology, and reconstruction who has also completed at least one additional fellowship year.
Juvederm Ultra Plus XC is a hyaluronic acid filler used to smooth and soften moderate to severe wrinkles around the mouth and nose. It is ideal for correcting smile lines (parentheses around the mouth), corner lip lines, and marionette lines which occur from both our facial movements and the decrease of hyaluronic acid and collagen found naturally in the skin over time.

Archita Patel is a phenomenal PA. Her attention to providing the patient dermatological care in the execution of a procedure was professional and knowledgeable and her ability to listen and answer all questions was outstanding. Her well-rounded approach left me with a sense of confidence in the procedure and I very much appreciated Archita's having taken the time to understand my ongoing skin profile for the future. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Practice manager is not only unprofessional but is downright patronizing and snobby. Not only did she insult me and disregard my dissatisfaction with my treatment, she insinuated the dermatologist specialist that referred them to me was uneducated and didn't know what they were doing. If she thinks being hostile and screaming on a phone is how you run a business then she must be from another planet.

I have been treated by a number of different staff at Dermatology Associates throughout the years. Every one of them have been professional and helpful. My experience at my visit on 5/12/22 was great from check-in through check out. All staff were courteous. Carmella Luzi (and my nurse) were friendly, knowledgeable and attentive.

The entire staff was very efficient and friendly. Dr Eickhorst explained each course of treatment as we went on I could understand the how and why she was taking the steps she was. Nicole, in assistance, was extremely efficient and friendly. Unlike some dr's office's Nicole worked very well with dr Eickhorst. I highly recommend this practice to anyone!

DO NOT GO HERE. I had been a patient a few years ago. Scheduled an appointment and they had all my information in the system. Then had the audacity to charge me a "New Patient fee" which they neglected to tell me, even though I asked if this was the total. I paid $150 to have a skin tag removed, which I had to pay up front because the insurance won't cover that, then they send a bill for the New patient fee. Totally unprofessional.

Greeted with a welcoming smile. Sharlize guided me into the room, made me comfortable, went over my reason for coming in and explained what to expect from the doctor. Dr. Zalka came in her usual friendly, welcoming manner. Talked to me the whole time, as a body scan is awkward and embarrassing. It was over before I knew it. This office visit, and every office visit with Dr. Zalka is comfortable, professional, friendly and kind. I recommend anyone to her practice who is in need of a dermatologist.
