Chief of Pediatric and Adolescent Dermatology at Rady Children's Hospital-San Diego and Vice Chair of the Department of Dermatology at UC San Diego School of Medicine, Dr. Lawrence Eichenfield sees pediatric dermatology referrals from 200 W Arbor Dr in Hillcrest. Referrals for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, infantile hemangiomas, and pediatric acne routinely arrive from general pediatric practices including Perlman Pediatrics Hillcrest after first-line topical therapy has failed. Dr. Eichenfield is board-certified in dermatology, pediatric dermatology, and pediatrics, co-founded the Pediatric Dermatology Research Alliance, and co-chairs the American Academy of Dermatology Guidelines for Atopic Dermatitis. His clinical program directs the Rady/UCSD Eczema and Inflammatory Skin Disease Center, which handles refractory eczema requiring systemic biologic therapy including dupilumab and JAK inhibitors for patients as young as six months. Complementary pediatric specialty visits for eczema patients with comorbid asthma and food allergy frequently coordinate on the same campus through UC San Diego Health Medical Offices South. The most demanding caseload covers vascular anomalies — port-wine stains, complicated infantile hemangiomas, and venous and lymphatic malformations — managed through the Vascular Lesion and Birthmark Center co-directorship with pulsed-dye laser and sirolimus therapy.
