DermPA™ Spotlight

President's Column | January 2026

January is a time of fresh starts—but for many of us in dermatology, it can also feel like a whirlwind. Formularies shift, deductibles reset, and new coding changes loom on the horizon. It’s a lot. And if you’re feeling a little overwhelmed, you’re not alone.

That’s why SDPA is here.

Dive in, live it, drink it, read about it, see the patients, ask questions, attend conferences.

SDPA Member Spotlight - JAMES WORRY

I love dermatology because I am a visual person. I love the attention to detail and recognizing subtle differences in presentation of rashes or lesions.

Meet new SDPA President, Archana Sangha, MMS, PA-C

As Derm PAs, we have the ability to change the lives of our patients. I believe in the SDPA, and our ability to leverage the passion, strength and dedication of our members into a very bright future for the Derm PA profession.
