Princeton Dermatology Associates

What Princeton Dermatology Associates does

Princeton Dermatology Associates is a privately held, physician-owned dermatology medical practice founded in 1985 by Dr. Roderick T. Kaufmann, Jr. and headquartered at 208 Bunn Drive, Princeton, New Jersey. The practice operates five offices across the metro Princeton, NJ area — Princeton, Plainsboro, Monroe Township (opened April 27, 2026), North Brunswick, and Hillsborough — staffed by 8 board-certified dermatologists (including two fellowship-trained Mohs Micrographic surgeons), 8 physician assistants and nurse practitioners, 2 licensed estheticians, and 3 registered/licensed nurses. It also operates a selective in-house Dermatology Fellows program that trains top graduate nurse practitioners, and runs an on-site Histopathology laboratory at the Monroe office that supports same-day Mohs Micrographic Surgery with microscopic mapping and reconstruction. The practice maintains hospital affiliations with the University of Pennsylvania Medicine / Penn Medicine Princeton Health (formerly University Medical Center at Princeton).

The practice generates revenue through four primary streams: insurance-reimbursed medical dermatology (diagnosis and treatment of conditions including acne, eczema, psoriasis, skin cancer, and others, billed through major carriers including Aetna, Cigna, Medicare, United Healthcare, Horizon/Blue Shield, and Oxford); self-pay cosmetic and aesthetic procedures (Botox, Juvederm, Restylane Lyft/Silk/Defyne/Refyne, Sculptra, laser hair removal, sclerotherapy, scar and sun-spot laser treatments, VI Peels); specialized Mohs Micrographic Surgery and dermatologic surgery; and Aesthetics Center ancillary services (microdermabrasion series, specialty chemical peels) embedded within each medical office. The go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer, relying on a strong local brand built over 40 years, the practice's owned website (princetonderm.com) with appointment-scheduling CTAs, and credentialed provider bios as the principal marketing assets. The practice is closely held and founder-led, with no disclosed outside investors or institutional shareholders.

Service is delivered exclusively through the five owned offices; no third-party channels, marketplaces, or white-label distribution is used. Back-office operations are supported by AdvancedMD and EMA platforms for patient registration, clinical information, and online bill payment. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; medical services are billed through insurance networks (patients must verify plan participation), while cosmetic and aesthetic services are self-pay with a $30 late-cancellation fee for missed appointments.

Direct peers

• The Dermatology Group: New Jersey-based multi-location dermatology practice offering medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology. Directly comparable as a regional, physician-owned multi-office dermatology group operating in adjacent NJ counties to Princeton Dermatology.

Broad incumbents

• Schweiger Dermatology Group: Large, PE-backed dermatology platform with 100+ locations across the Northeast, including NJ. Directly comparable product/service mix (medical, surgical, cosmetic dermatology with Mohs) but far larger scale and consolidator strategy.
• US Dermatology Partners: One of the largest PE-backed dermatology platforms in the U.S. with extensive medical, surgical, Mohs, and cosmetic offerings. Comparable in service breadth and payor mix, but operates at national scale with a buy-and-build consolidation model.
• Advanced Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery: National, PE-backed dermatology practice platform combining medical, surgical, Mohs, and cosmetic services. Highly comparable service offering and target patient demographic, with materially larger geographic and operational footprint.
• Forefront Dermatology: PE-backed dermatology network operating across multiple states with full-service medical, surgical, Mohs, and aesthetic offerings. Comparable in service mix and multi-specialty provider model, though much larger and geographically dispersed.
• Pinnacle Dermatology: Multi-state, PE-backed dermatology group offering medical, surgical, cosmetic, and Mohs services. Comparable in integrated service model and patient demographic, with a similar consolidation-driven growth strategy.
• QualDerm Partners: PE-backed dermatology and skin-care platform partnering with quality practices across the U.S. Directly comparable as a physician-affiliated, multi-service dermatology platform and a likely strategic acquirer of a practice like Princeton Dermatology.

Regional players

• Windsor Dermatology: New Jersey-based dermatology practice referenced in Princeton Dermatology's provider bios as a prior employer. Directly comparable as a regional dermatology provider competing for the same patient pool and clinical talent in NJ.
• Accredited Dermatology / DermOne: Multi-office NJ-based dermatology group cited in provider bios as a competitor employer. Directly comparable as a regional, multi-office medical and surgical dermatology practice operating in overlapping NJ geographies.

Emerging players

• On-Site Dermatology: Mobile/specialty dermatology services provider noted in Princeton Dermatology's provider bios as a prior employer. Comparable as a regional dermatology provider offering an alternative delivery model (on-site patient visits) that could draw patients and providers away from traditional practices.
