Psoriasis

A genetic, chronic condition affecting millions of people, psoriasis is an immune system reaction in which the skin replicates too quickly. Psoriasis appears on the skin as silvery scaly red rashes that are often symmetric, can be few or many, and often increase with stress, infection, weather changes and weight gain. It can involve the scalp, nails, genitals and joints.

Treatments include emolliation (moisturization), topical prescription creams, injections of cortisone, and in more severe cases, oral prescription medications. Importantly, people have improvement with sunlight, exercise, saltwater, and dietary and lifestyle changes.

Patient Testimonials

Jonathan

Dr. Channing Barnett is an excellent dermatologist. Professional, knowledgeable, personable and never keeps you waiting or rushes you. I would refer any friend or family member to Dr. Barnett. She is truly a great dermatologist!

Kathy

I have been a patient of Dr. jay Barnett for about 20 years. I have been so happy with the care I get in the office. Then I met Dr. Channing and she is a plus to the office. I have sent at least 10 new patients including my 88 year-old mom. Need I say more about a great father and daughter team.

Julia

I went to Dr. Barnett because I have been experiencing horrible adult acne for the past three months. I tried every product from drugstore topical treatments, expensive designer or name brand products, and was prescribed some antibiotics and a topical cream, but nothing was working. It had all been very stressful and I felt like I lost all my self-confidence and was desperate to try something that would work.

Cathy T

I just want to say how pleased I am with my procedure! Dr. Jay Barnett did an excellent, precise job with the silicone injections into my acne scars. I can finally walk around with confidence. This had done wonders for my self image. I only wish we took after pictures to see the mind blowing difference

Dear Dr. Channing Barnett, The internet has made searching for a doctor much easier. We can research a doctor's education, experience, location and review comments made by other patients. Still, there is a lot of luck involved in selecting the right doctor. I was very lucky. From the moment I walked through the door of Barnett Dermatology, I knew I made the right choice. Great doctor! Great team. Not only would I highly recommend Barnett Dermatology, but I am planning to go back myself. Thanks for being you
