    Can anyone recommend a good pediatric dermatologist? Will to drive pretty much anywhere in NOVA for the best. :)

    Thanks so much in advance!

    We've taken our son to our derm. Dr. Van Ha in Lansdowne since he was 6 months old. Dr. Ha diagnosed a pediatric skin disease that could have been life threatening when the pediatrician blew it off for 4 months. HTH!

    I don't know how good Dr. Ha is, but he sure has an almost 1 year waiting list for new patients. I made the appointment for my daughters in August, and the first available slot is June 2013!

    Wow! I've been seeing him for years for mole checks and then for my son 8+ years ago. He has great bedside manner and won me over with the proper diagnosis. If you can wait until June :(, he's worth the wait. Obviously sometimes you can't and it's a shame there aren't more doctors like him.

    Oh wow! Well thank you for the referral, but we'll need to see someone sooner than that. Maybe I'll make "skin checkup" appointments with him for next summer. :)

    Thanks again!
