The Best Dermatology Research Institute in San Diego

CDCRI is dedicated to finding and using the best available therapies in dermatology. We do this by performing clinical research studies to help develop and become familiar with the latest treatments before they become available to day-to-day physicians. By using and understanding new and upcoming therapies, we can provide the absolute best care possible to all our patients. Our research work is performed at the request of large and small pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers. The data obtained is used to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of new products to meet FDA requirements for approval and marketing.

California Dermatology and Clinical Research staff is filled with the best and brightest minds in dermatology. The best way to provide patients with the optimal experience is to hire an exemplary staff, and we have definitely done that at CDCRI. Led by Dr. Stacy Smith, if you come to California Dermatology and Clinical Research Institute in San Diego you are sure to be in good hands.

Why is CDCRI Different?

California Dermatology and Clinical Research Institute in San Diego prides itself on standing out from the rest of the pack when it comes to clinical research institutes. However, plenty of dermatology clinical research institutes in San Diego offer treatment for a variety of ailments. What truly sets California Dermatology and Clinical Research Institute apart?

A friendly and welcoming staff

The big difference for California Dermatology and Clinical Research Institute is the way our beautiful office feels. Instead of being in a stuffy and sterile office with doctors in lab coats that basically exude anxiety, CDCRI strives to create a friendly and laid back environment. We want people to be comfortable every time they drive to Encinitas and enter our office. Too often patients will enter a doctor's office or clinical research institute and be shuttled along like cattle with little time or attention paid to them. At California Dermatology and Clinical Research Institute, our doctors and staff take the time to listen and really understand who you are and what is ailing you. We do not rush you or make you feel unwanted. Conversely, we want you to be at ease and comfortable, and we put in the effort to do so!

no charge to participate

California Dermatology and Clinical Research Institute, through its research agreements, has access to investigational medications, biologics and devices that are not yet FDA approved for use and thus not available elsewhere. We are all familiar with the rising cost of health care and especially the cost of medications.    However, at CDCRI we offer our research participation completely free of charge! We want patients to come in and enroll in our clinical research trials to help us discover long lasting solutions to dermatological issues. 

cares for patients who don't have insurance

No insurance? No problem! California Dermatology and Clinical Research Institute offers no charge consultations to all patients. Our goal is to find solutions to skin and dermatological ailments using the latest research, and we do not want to exclude people we could be helping because they do not have insurance. You may qualify for a research study or you may elect to receive care using already available medications. We are happy to help you decide and work to get you the medication you need.
