Local dermatologist, Dr. Keith A. Knoell, has had a general dermatology practice in the Shenandoah Valley for the last 17 years.

Considered one of the best dermatologists in the area, Dr. Knoell treats the full range of skin conditions prevalent in the United States. Skin cancer, acne, rosacea, vitiligo, melasma, actinic keratosis, seborrheic keratosis, and eczema are just some of the skin challenges he treats.

By far, skin cancer is one of the biggest skin conditions he diagnoses and treats. With more than a million Americans affected each year, skin cancer remains a prominent concern. As always, as a skincare specialist, Dr. Knoell recommends the liberal use of sunscreen!

Acne is another biggie. A real blow to a person’s self-esteem, acne is demoralizing whether you’re 15 or 50. Today, acne spans the generations, with adult acne on the rise in this country.

That’s why acne patients have such a variance in age. Depending on your age, Dr. Knoell will prescribe the medication that’s right for you to help clear your acne.

Psoriasis is another frustrating disease that can wreck a person’s self-image. While there is no cure, there are effective ways to manage the disease. Dr. Knoell will talk with you about the appropriate treatment for you.

Rosacea is yet another autoimmune disease that generally affects the face. It can cause embarrassment due to the butterfly red pattern that fans across the face. Even though it cannot be cured, it can be controlled. Dr. Knoell can prescribed a medication for effective treatment.

Eczema and melasma are also skin diseases that cause social discomfort, with eczema leaving telltale dry and red patches. Melasama, on the other hand, mars the skin with brown patches. There are treatments for both.

All of these skin concerns, and others, are seen almost everyday at Valley Dermatology. You can rely on Dr. Knoell and his staff to answer all your questions for you. Questions such as:

“What caused this?”
“How will you treat it?”
“Can it be treated?”
“Will it come back?”
