Hey all,

I recently had a visit with a dermatology nurse practitioner. While she was aware of LS, she hasn't personally treated a patient my age. Currently she suspects it could be dermatitis or LS and put me on a low dose steroid and will see how its doing in about a month and then move forward with a biopsy. I am not comfortable with this and will be calling tomorrow to move the biopsy. Unfortunately, I feel confident this is LS. Anyone in FL have any DR recommendations? Preferably central FL

    My wife was recently diagnosed during a pap smear with Dr. Rule.

    We had never heard of LS. Based on her exam, she did a biopsy to confirm and then started treatment.

    Very early in the process, but Dr. Rule seems to be familiar with LS.

    Good Luck.
