About

Center For Skin Diseases on Coronado Island's Prospect Place medical campus is a four-physician dermatology and dermatopathology group practice at 230 Prospect Place, Suite 260, inside the Coronado Physicians Medical Center building. The group's dual dermatology-dermatopathology capability means tissue samples biopsied on-site undergo subspecialty-level microscopic analysis without leaving the 92118 campus — a diagnostic workflow that coordinates UV-damage screenings with the broader vision-health monitoring at Coronado Eye Care Optometry, since chronic sun exposure drives both cutaneous and ocular pathology on Coronado Beach. Physicians on staff bring training histories spanning residency completions from 1960 through the 2010s, including aerospace medicine specialization relevant to military flight crews stationed at Naval Air Station North Island. Patients combining medical dermatology with cosmetic skin-health maintenance find complementary facial and corrective skin treatments at Lana SkinFit Method on Orange Avenue. Clinical scope covers skin cancer excision, cryosurgery, psoriasis and eczema management, acne treatment protocols, contact dermatitis evaluation, and full-body mole mapping, with TRICARE, Medicare, Medicaid, and thirteen additional commercial panels accepted. Coronado Island's compact geography places every medical practice in the 92118 ZIP within walking or driving distance of the Coronado Bridge approach, the Orange Avenue village, and the Coronado Ferry Landing. Hotel Del Coronado at 1500 Orange Avenue anchors the southern end of the island's commercial corridor, and the village's compact 92118 geography means patients reach every medical office on the island within a short walk, bike ride, or drive from any residential block. The 92118 specialist community serves referrals from the island's primary-care providers and Sharp Coronado Hospital, treating patients whose conditions span the active-duty military injuries from Naval Air Station North Island, the UV-exposure dermatology of a Coronado Beach lifestyle, and the age-related care needs of long-term island residents.
