Located in a comfortable, state-of-the-art office in Utah, Stone Dermatology is a comprehensive dermatology practice, providing a full range of medical, surgical and cosmetic dermatologic services for all skin types.

Surveys have shown that U.S. adults frequently search online for health information, but are frustrated by the large volume of information they find from questionable sources. A majority of health consumers state that they would prefer to get that information directly from their own doctor. Unfortunately, a majority of physicians report finding it difficult to provide education during an office visit and most medical practice websites lack health information.
