At Queen City Dermatology, we strive to make exceptional skin care accessible through transparent financial policies and a variety of payment options. We work with most major insurance providers and offer straightforward solutions for both insured and self-pay patients.
Not only provides excellent care but truly cares.
Insurance Partnerships for Your Skin Health
We will keep you updated as we finalize our insurance partners.
Our knowledgeable office staff will verify your insurance benefits prior to your visit and help you understand any anticipated out-of-pocket costs for your dermatology care.
Referrals and Prior Authorizations
Some insurance plans require referrals from primary care physicians or prior authorizations for certain procedures. Our team is experienced in navigating these requirements and will work with you to ensure proper documentation is in place before your appointment.
Flexible Payment Options for Dermatologic Services
For your convenience, we accept:
- Cash
- Personal checks
- All major credit cards
- Health Savings Account (HSA) cards
- Flexible Spending Account (FSA) cards


Cosmetic Dermatology Services
Most cosmetic dermatology procedures are not covered by insurance. During your consultation, we’ll provide transparent pricing information for any recommended aesthetic treatments. We also offer package pricing for certain cosmetic services to help maximize value.
Financial Responsibility
As a courtesy, we will bill your insurance for covered medical services. You are responsible for co-payments, deductibles, and any services not covered by your plan. Co-payments are due at the time of service.
