Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center gained its start at Stone County Hospital in the city of Wiggins, MS, in September of 2014. The Petal location, which currently represents their primary office, opened in November of 2014. Petal continues to be the ideal location for the practice because Petal is a growing community, it provides Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center an opportunity to also grow and flourish. It wasn't long before Pine Belt Dermatology grew beyond the boundaries of Forrest County. They started with one provider, Dr. David Roy, D.O., FAOCD, FASMS, FAAD and a humble five-member staff. Since then Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center has grown tremendously.

Lauren Aycock, FNP-BC started her journey with Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center in the Petal location in September of 2015. In February of 2016, Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center added a clinic in Hattiesburg, Mississippi at Merit Health Wesley Hospital. In November of 2016, Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center welcomed provider, Dr. Eugene Conte, D.O., FAOCD, FAAD. Due to the rapid growth of the Hattiesburg location, Kristen Richardson, PA-C joined the ranks of Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center in April of 2017.

In early 2018, Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center expanded once again by opening a clinic in Ellisville, MS in order to serve the patient of Jones County.

In November of 2019, Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center opened a clinic on the Mississippi Gulf Coast in Biloxi. Dr. Keoni Nguyen, D. 0., FAOCD, FAAD joined by Marisa Stringer, FNP-BC, CANS, provide the best care available to the Biloxi and surrounding Gulf Coast area.

More recently, Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center added two additional providers to our dermatology team, Raven Miller FNP-C and Nicole Moore FNP-C. Raven and Nicole provide outstanding care to our patients at the Petal, Hattiesburg, and Ellisville locations. Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center would like to thank the communities in which they operate, as well as every patient that has walked through their doors since they originally opened in 2014. It has been a pleasure providing care to you and your families and Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center hopes to continue serving the communities in which they practice.
