1 Skin Cancer & Cosmetic Dermatology Center to Open Southside Location Mar. 13 CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (March 13, 2018) Skin Cancer & Cosmetic Dermatology Center opens a new facility in Chattanooga s Southside, today, March 13. Conveniently located at 320 East Main St., in the heart of Chattanooga s downtown Main Street district, the Southside dermatology & cosmetic center becomes the latest addition to their growing family of centers serving southeast Tennessee and northwest Georgia.

The eclectic mix of art, entertainment, cuisine and people is what draws me to Southside, stated Stewart Little, MD. Years ago, seeds were planted, and organic growth was the result. As a Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon with Skin Cancer and Cosmetic Dermatology Center (SCCDC), I use that philosophy with my patients. I listen to their desires, and I have an instinctive understanding of their expectations to blossom in the most naturallooking way possible. I look forward to being part of the premiere dermatology and cosmetic services that SCCDC is bringing to Southside. We re excited to open this new location in Chattanooga s Southside to better serve our growing number of patients who work and live downtown. It is a privilege to continue offering the best dermatology care in our region by making it so much more accessible. Our patients will have convenient access to complete dermatology care and skin cancer screenings, including general, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology, said Lyndsey Randolph-Boeselager, FNP-BC, who will serve as the Southside location s primary Family Nurse Practitioner. Our extraordinary medical team has decades of experience in treating a broad range of skin conditions and bringing professional expertise to even the most difficult cases, said Kelley Finnell, Executive Director of Skin Cancer & Cosmetic Dermatology Center. We care deeply about our patients and our communities, and part of our commitment is putting the needs of our patients first.
