Health information disclaimer: This directory is informational only and not medical advice. Rankings reflect publicly available Google ratings and review volume, not clinical outcomes. Verify any practitioner’s credentials and registration with the relevant medical board before booking.

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is each practice’s live Google star average. Review volume measures how many patients have rated them, ranked against other San Antonio dermatology practices. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 built on thousands of reviews carries more weight than the same score on a few hundred. Recency tracks how recently patients are still leaving reviews. No practice can pay to change these numbers.

What to expect on cost when choosing a dermatologist in San Antonio

Dermatology pricing depends heavily on whether a visit is medical (often insurance-covered) or cosmetic (typically self-pay), and none of these practices publish a fixed rate card for every service. Confirm your insurance network and ask for self-pay rates upfront if you’re considering a cosmetic treatment.

Serving all of San Antonio

These dermatology practices cover San Antonio’s medical corridors, including the Medical Center near Via Shavano, downtown near Broadway, Alamo Heights, and Olmos Park. Searching for a dermatologist near me? Every listing above shows a live phone number so you can check availability directly.

What to ask before you choose a dermatologist

Is the visit medical or cosmetic, and how does that affect insurance coverage?
Which provider will I actually see, and are they board-certified?
How soon can I get an appointment for a time-sensitive concern like a mole check?
What is the self-pay rate for cosmetic treatments like Botox or laser services?
Does the office offer virtual consultations for follow-up questions?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these dermatologists?

We started from every dermatology practice in San Antonio with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (September 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Which San Antonio dermatologist has the shortest wait for an appointment?

Dermatology Specialists of San Antonio’s reviewers most consistently mention same-day availability and short in-office wait times.

Do any of these practices offer both medical and cosmetic dermatology?

Yes. Dermatology San Antonio, Texas Dermatology - Alamo Heights, RFSA Dermatology Olmos and Sonterra Dermatology on Broadway all combine medical skin care with cosmetic treatments like Botox, fillers and laser services.

The bottom line

Dermatology San Antonio is the safe default given its combination of rating and by far the deepest review history on this page, while Texas Dermatology - Alamo Heights is the stronger call for complex or surgical cases. Confirm whether your visit counts as medical or cosmetic before you book, since that changes what your insurance will cover.
