About the Georgia Society of Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery

The Georgia Society of Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery, established in May 1958, is a statewide association, with a current membership of over 200 physicians, that strives to enhance the quality of human life by supporting an environment in which dermatologists can provide the highest quality of care.

The GSD provides representation to the Medical Association of Georgia and the American Academy of Dermatology.

All Georgia dermatologists are encouraged to be actively involved in GSD. We are open to your suggestions and comments. If you are a dermatologist in Georgia and currently not a member, we strongly urge you to join today! There is strength in numbers and we need the support of all active dermatologists to continue our efforts.
