Atopic Dermatitis Sleep Study (Topical cream)

We know these are challenging times and venturing out can be especially stressful. We want you to know that at CRCC we have implemented every safety measure possible to keep you safe and prevent the spread of Covid-19. Patient areas are continually disinfected, social distancing is enforced in our lobby, and all staff wear masks/gloves throughout the day. If you arrive for your appointment and wish to wear a mask, we will provide one for you as well.

About Atopic Dermatitis

Eczema/Atopic Dermatitis is a complex disease that is determined by genetic, environmental, and immunologic factors. It is one of the most common chronic medical diseases that is characterized by redness, itching, thickening of the skin and crusted areas. Flares are frequently triggered by exposure to environmental factors, irritants, and allergens. Patients may have a high disease burden and their life quality is significantly affected.
