Epiphany Dermatology Strengthens Texas Presence Through Partnership with Dermatology Associates, LLP in Texarkana
Epiphany Dermatology, a fast-growing network of dermatology practices dedicated to expanding access to high-quality skin care, announced that it has entered into a partnership with Dermatology Associates, LLP, a well-established dermatology practice based in Texarkana, Texas. This collaboration represents another step in Epiphany’s broader mission to provide comprehensive, patient-centered dermatologic care across the United States, particularly in underserved and growing markets.
Dermatology Associates, LLP has served the Texarkana community since 1998, building a reputation for compassionate, professional, and advanced skin care under the leadership of its founder, Dr. Jeff Young. A board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Young has more than two decades of experience treating a wide range of dermatological conditions, from routine skin health to advanced surgical needs. Alongside Dr. Young, the practice also includes a highly skilled mid-level provider, Garrett Camp, NP, who brings additional expertise and accessibility for patients in the region. Together, the team has been a trusted resource for families and individuals seeking dermatology services in both Northeast Texas and Southwest Arkansas.
A Legacy of Care in Texarkana
Since opening its doors in the late 1990s, Dermatology Associates has been guided by a simple but powerful philosophy: every patient deserves personalized, professional, and accessible dermatologic care. Over the years, Dr. Young and his team have established a practice known not only for medical excellence but also for a genuine commitment to community health.
Patients in Texarkana and surrounding areas have long depended on Dermatology Associates for preventive skin checks, diagnosis and management of skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and acne, as well as more complex procedures like skin cancer detection and treatment. Dr. Young’s extensive training and expertise in medical and surgical dermatology have positioned the practice as a trusted destination for both routine and specialized care.
Speaking about the partnership, Dr. Young emphasized how this collaboration marks an important milestone for both his practice and the patients it serves. “My staff and I are excited to join Epiphany Dermatology,” he shared. “I take immense pride and responsibility in treating our patients in the Texarkana market, and entering this partnership will benefit the communities we serve. Epiphany’s mission and values align well with what we believe in—compassionate and exceptional medical and surgical dermatology care for all our patients. I look forward to helping Epiphany maintain its high standards and providing access to great dermatologic care for our community for years to come.”
Dr. Jeff Young’s Path in Dermatology
Dr. Young brings a wealth of expertise to the partnership. After earning his medical degree from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, he completed a dermatology residency at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, one of the most respected training programs in the country. His clinical background encompasses a wide range of dermatological services, from general skin health to surgical procedures, always with an emphasis on evidence-based care.
With his extensive experience, Dr. Young has become a cornerstone of dermatology in Texarkana, known not only for his clinical skills but also for his personable, attentive approach to patient care. Under his guidance, Dermatology Associates has provided thousands of patients with the reassurance that their skin health is in expert hands.
Epiphany’s Expanding Network
The partnership with Dermatology Associates is the latest step in Epiphany Dermatology’s ongoing expansion across the country. Founded with a mission to improve access to high-quality dermatologic care, Epiphany has grown rapidly by bringing together practices that share its core values of patient-first care, compassion, and clinical excellence.
Through partnerships with established local practices, Epiphany provides additional resources and operational support, allowing physicians and their teams to focus on delivering the best possible care. By combining the strength of a national network with the unique touch of local providers, Epiphany has developed a model that ensures consistency in quality while maintaining community-level accessibility.
Gheorghe Pusta, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Epiphany Dermatology, highlighted the importance of welcoming Dermatology Associates into the network. “We are excited to welcome Dr. Young and his staff to Epiphany. Through our interactions with Dr. Young and his colleagues, we have been impressed by their commitment to quality care and being accessible to patients in the community they serve. We are pleased to find a strong cultural alignment, and this is an exciting opportunity to expand our provider network and improve access to great dermatologic care in Northeast Texas and Southwest Arkansas.”
Benefits of the Partnership
The partnership offers significant advantages for both patients and providers. For Dr. Young and his team, Epiphany brings a comprehensive suite of operational resources that support the day-to-day functioning of a modern medical practice. This includes assistance with managed care contracting, marketing, compliance, human resources, IT infrastructure, clinical training, and recruitment. These resources alleviate administrative burdens, enabling the clinical team to focus more fully on patient care.
Patients, in turn, benefit from enhanced access to care and the integration of best practices across Epiphany’s network of providers. As part of a larger system, Dermatology Associates can now leverage the shared knowledge and expertise of a broad group of dermatology professionals nationwide. This means patients in Texarkana will not only continue to receive the same trusted care they’ve come to expect but also gain the advantages of a larger, resource-rich organization dedicated to continuous improvement in dermatology.
Epiphany also benefits from the clinical expertise and strong reputation of Dr. Young’s team. The integration of Dermatology Associates strengthens Epiphany’s presence in Texas, particularly in the Texarkana market, and allows the organization to continue building its vision of broad, community-based access to dermatologic services.
Expanding Access in Northeast Texas and Southwest Arkansas
Texarkana holds a unique position, straddling the border of Texas and Arkansas, making Dermatology Associates an essential provider for a broad geographic region. The practice has long served patients from both states, offering a critical resource for communities that might otherwise face barriers to accessing specialized dermatologic care.
By joining Epiphany, Dermatology Associates is better positioned to meet the growing needs of this diverse population. Whether it’s providing routine screenings to detect skin cancer early, treating chronic skin conditions that affect quality of life, or performing surgical procedures with precision, the team is now equipped with enhanced resources to ensure patients continue receiving top-tier care.
A Shared Vision for the Future
Both Epiphany and Dermatology Associates share a vision of advancing dermatologic care that is accessible, compassionate, and high quality. This alignment of values has been a key driver behind the partnership, ensuring that patients remain at the center of every decision.
For Dr. Young and his staff, joining Epiphany represents more than just a business agreement—it is a chance to further their mission of service to the community. “Our patients have trusted us for decades, and we are proud to continue caring for them as part of Epiphany,” Dr. Young said. “With this partnership, we can do even more to ensure that people in Texarkana and beyond have the dermatologic care they deserve.”
For Epiphany, the addition of Dermatology Associates marks another important milestone in building a nationwide network that balances scale with personalized, local care. By continuing to partner with respected practices like Dermatology Associates, Epiphany is strengthening its ability to meet the dermatology needs of patients everywhere.
