[INDIALANTIC, FL] -- MIMA Dermatology has opened an additional medical office at MIMA’s new Indialantic location at Seaside Centre, 1220 Highway AIA – just one mile north of Fifth Avenue (State Road 1-92). Patients can call 321-757-5141 for medical dermatology appointments or 321-757-7955 for cosmetic dermatology appointments.
“We are excited to open a second office,” says Dr. Anita Saluja, MIMA Dermatologist. “The demand for dermatological services continues to expand in Brevard as people become more proactive about skin health and beauty, adds Dr. Saluja.
Jennifer Rivera, ARNP, will initially see patients three days a week with appointments from 9 am – 4 pm. As patient interest grows, appointments will expand to full time. “With the advancements in Electronic Medical Records (EMR) technology, I can consult with Ms. Rivera on all Seaside patients from our Viera office using both medical notes and photos that are available immediately in the EMR.”
MIMA Dermatology board-certified physicians and nurse practitioners are trained to provide expert care for medical, surgical and cosmetic dermatology patients. “First and foremost, we concentrate on the diagnosis and treatment of skin cancer,” says Dr. Saluja. “In this outdoor lifestyle that we live in Florida, skin cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer.” Dr. Saluja adds that in addition to cancer treatment, MIMA Dermatology treats other forms of skin disease, and provides consultation to improve sun damage and make aging skin more radiant using a variety of the industry’s most advanced treatment options now available (such as PhotoFacials, lasers including CO2 Fraxel and BLU light).
To celebrate the opening of this new office, a Grand Opening Event is scheduled for February 1, from 5:30 – 7:30 pm. Patients and potential new patients are invited to attend for an event that includes educational skin stations, food, fun and door prizes that include:
· A Grand Prize winner will receive complimentary BOTOXÒ for one year.
· Year’s supply of sunscreen
· Gifts from Obagi Skincare - considered the best prescription corrective creams
· Latisse - the new product for longer, fuller lashes
· Clarisonic Pro Skincare Brush - Dr. Saluja’s favorite skin care item
