About the Company

Forefront Dermatology

Physician-led dermatology services platform

Forefront Dermatology provides dermatology care through a physician-led network of practices organized to deliver high-quality patient care. The company operates by offering centralized support services—such as back-office, operations, and administrative resources—so individual dermatologists can focus on medicine while still benefiting from the scale of a larger organization. The business grows by acquiring independent dermatology practices, creating a national platform where clinicians retain clinical autonomy but gain access to shared services and resources. The company has expanded from a single Wisconsin practice to a larger Midwest-and-beyond footprint and has attracted private equity investment to accelerate growth. Its goal is to enable dermatologists to deliver excellent patient care at scale by combining clinical autonomy with centralized, efficient support.
