Conditions we treat

Anderson residents know that skin health affects more than how you look—it influences how you feel every day. Psoriasis, atopic dermatitis (eczema), and hidradenitis suppurativa can disrupt sleep, confidence, and comfort, especially when flare-ups are unpredictable.

At AndHealth, we combine advanced medicine with individualized coaching and continuous support. Our approach treats not just your skin, but your whole person.

AndHealth provides convenient, coordinated dermatology care so you can access diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing management without traveling far from home. Our in-network health plans include Medicaid, Medicare and most major health plans in Indiana.

Psoriasis knee icon
Psoriasis

Psoriasis is an inflammatory condition that causes thick, scaly patches on the skin and can affect the joints and other systems of the body. In Anderson, cold winters with low humidity can dry the skin, while stress, illness, or changes in routine may also trigger flares. AndHealth’s dermatology specialists focus on calming inflammation and strengthening the skin barrier through a combination of biologic therapies, topical treatments, and lifestyle support. We help you manage triggers, restore comfort, and protect your confidence—so your psoriasis no longer defines your day.

Atopic dermatitis icon
Atopic dermatitis (Eczema)

Eczema is a chronic skin condition that leads to redness, itching, dryness, and inflammation. It often worsens during Indiana’s dry winters and pollen-filled spring and fall months. Your AndHealth dermatology team will take the time to understand your unique skin triggers. We combine modern topical and systemic biologic therapies with practical health coaching on sleep, hydration, nutrition, and stress reduction.
Your personalized plan helps you reduce flare-ups, protect your skin barrier, and maintain comfort through every season in Anderson.

Hidradenitis suppurativa icon
Hidradenitis suppurativa

HS causes painful nodules and abscesses under the skin, particularly in areas where friction and heat occur. Many people live with HS for years before receiving proper treatment. AndHealth dermatologists provides comprehensive HS care that addresses both the physical and emotional effects of this condition. Your care plan may include biologic therapies, wound-care coordination, and lifestyle guidance designed around Indiana’s climate and your daily needs. We help you minimize flare frequency, reduce pain, and improve quality of life with compassionate support.

How a virtual dermatology visit works

We want you to feel as comfortable in an online appointment as you would in person. Here’s how a virtual appointment works.

You and your doctor will join a video call at a place most convenient to you - at home, work, your car, etc.

Choose somewhere quiet where you can speak freely, and where you have a good internet connection.

Your nearest Community Health Center can also provide a private room with a computer where you can join your appointment (reserved in advance).

+

Your dermatologist will ask you where you are experiencing symptoms.

They will ask you to show the affected skin on camera to confirm size, shape, location, inflammation and other factors.

If needed, your dermatologist will order blood work to get more information, as they would during an in-person exam.

+

When you are in a flare, or having a hard day, an online appointment can be much easier to join.

An online appointment saves you time from driving to an office, sitting in a waiting room, and then seeing your provider.

An online appointment should feel as unrushed and thorough as in person.

We want you to always feel that you can ask all of your questions, report on how you've been feeling, and help us create or modify the best treatment plan for you.

Personalized treatments & care unique to Anderson

Comprehensive treatment plans for Anderson dermatology patients

Anderson’s seasonal weather affects skin health in predictable patterns—cold, dry winters that cause irritation and warmth and humidity in the summer that may trigger HS. Your AndHealth care team creates a personalized treatment plan that adapts to these conditions and your lifestyle.

Our dermatology care team approach combines leading medical therapies (biologics, topicals, immunomodulators) with whole person support. You receive coordinated care from your dermatologist, pharmacist, health coach, and patient navigator. Together, they help you manage medications, develop stress-management tools, and build a daily skin-care routine that works with Indiana’s changing climate.

We also collaborate with nearby health systems and labs for imaging, labs and advanced in-person care. With AndHealth, you receive both the local touch and the expertise of an integrated care team.

Common PsO, AD, HS symptoms better & worse in Anderson

Dermatology symptoms made better in Anderson

Balanced humidity supports skin hydration and healing during the spring and fall weather. Anderson’s location within the Indianapolis health network means faster access to dermatology expertise and treatment.

Dermatology symptoms more challenging in Anderson

In winter, cold air and indoor heating dehydrate skin, worsening eczema and psoriasis. During the summer humidity, HS flare-ups are more frequent in humid conditions when sweat and friction increase. And in the spring and fall, allergens can irritate sensitive skin and worsen itching.

Your AndHealth care team helps you plan ahead for these cycles and adapt skincare routines, hydration, and medication timing to minimize flares.

Moderate water hardness in Madison County can contribute to dry skin and eczema irritation. Gentle cleansers and moisturizers are part of your care plan.

Seasonal changes

Indiana’s sharp transition between dry winters and humid summers challenges the skin barrier and can influence flare frequency.
