At Belaray Dermatology, we know all about warts.  We treat them wherever they grow – from head to toe – and everywhere in between.  Warts are caused by a common virus, called Human Papillomavirus (HPV)

This virus can affect almost any skin but most frequently are found on the hands, feet, and genitals.

We are committed to helping treat warts, and offer a wide variety of treatment options to fit the specific needs of our patients.  We are honored to be recognized for our ongoing efforts by the website WarOnWarts.com as one of the best dermatologists in the New York area to visit for wart treatment.  Thank you!

NEW HYDE PARK, NY — North Shore-LIJ Health System physicians recently presented “The Doctors Are In,” a women’s health symposium attended by over fifty Long Island business women at the Suffolk County Bar Association in Hauppauge.

Presented by the North Shore-LIJ’s Katz Women’s Hospital and Women’s Health Institute and co-sponsored by the Suffolk County Bar Association and Suffolk County Women’s Bar Association, the symposium was moderated by Neeta Shah, MD, FACP, vice president of women’s health services at North Shore-LIJ.

Jeffrey Ellis, MD, director of dermatological surgery at North Shore University Hospital and LIJ Medical Center was amongst the panel of speakers.  He discussed the role of UV Radiation and Skin Cancer.

“The goal of this program was to educate the community on disease prevention and present the most updated health care information available,” said Dr. Shah. “Programs like this teach and empower women to make enlightened health care decisions for themselves and their families.”

We are honored to receive the 2008 Patient’s Choice award.  Of the nations 720,000 active physicians, less than 5% were accorded this honor by their patients in 2008 – and we are proud to be one of them.

We look forward to continuing to provide the best possible care to our patients in 2009 and beyond!
