A key aspect of Stephen Lewellis’ practice is his focus on treating skin conditions and addressing the underlying factors contributing to them. Stephen emphasizes the link between skin issues like psoriasis and systemic health problems such as metabolic syndrome. By recognizing the holistic impact of skin conditions on overall health, Stephen Lewellis aims to offer patients a more thorough and effective treatment strategy.

One of the critical aspects of a holistic approach to dermatology care is the importance of patient education and empowerment. In a traditional dermatology setting, patients may only have a few minutes with their provider and leave the office feeling confused or unsure about their treatment plan. In contrast, a holistic dermatologist, Stephen Lewellis, takes the time to have meaningful conversations with patients, ensuring they understand their condition, treatment options, and the importance of lifestyle changes in managing their skin health.
