Psoriasis Social

What Psoriasis Social does

Psoriasis Social is a private, for-profit online community founded in 2011 that serves people affected by psoriasis. According to its firmographics, the platform is a psoriasis-focused network group where users can follow the community, read and write blog posts, and participate in chat — functionality consistent with a patient-support/social network rather than a clinical or commercial product. The company operates at very small scale, with 1–10 employees, and its primary online property is the website psoriasissocial.org. There is no documented evidence of a mobile app, AI features, API, integrations, partnerships, awards, patents, or funding rounds.

The available source material is materially mismatched: the detailed corporate, legal, revenue, and Medium/social data attached to this profile pertains to "Lead Marketing Strategies," a separate digital marketing entity that targets small businesses on Long Island. None of that content refers to Psoriasis Social, and the source explicitly flags that "Psoriasis Social was not found in any provided sources." Consequently, Psoriasis Social's business model, revenue mechanics, pricing, customer segments, geographic footprint, competitive positioning, and operating status beyond the basic firmographics cannot be verified from the input. The sole confirmed leadership data point is founder Michael Dornan. Any downstream investment, M&A, or partnership analysis based on this file should treat the LinkedIn/Medium/Lead Marketing Strategies content as non-applicable and require fresh primary-source diligence on the psoriasis community entity itself.

Direct peers

• Smart Patients: Online community for cancer and chronic-illness patients and caregivers to share learnings and clinical trial information. Comparable as a peer-support community built around chronic conditions, with overlapping features such as condition-specific forums and member-driven content.
• HealthUnlocked: UK-based patient social network hosting condition-specific communities for chronic disease patients, frequently in partnership with patient advocacy organizations. Comparable as a free, condition-focused online community where patients post and engage around a specific condition.
• Inspire: Patient community platform partnering with health nonprofits to host condition-specific forums and discussion groups. Highly comparable business model (community + content + pharma partnerships) and directly relevant for understanding patient-community dynamics around chronic conditions like psoriasis.
• DailyStrength: Online support group community organized by condition, including dermatology and autoimmune-related topics. Comparable business of providing condition-organized, member-driven discussion forums for patients.
• MyHealthTeams: Network of condition-specific social networks for people with chronic health conditions, monetizing via pharma sponsorship. Operates in the same niche-vertical, condition-focused social-network category as Psoriasis Social, often cited as the commercial template for monetizing patient communities.
• PatientsLikeMe: Long-running online patient community where members with chronic conditions share symptoms, treatment outcomes, and peer support. Directly comparable to Psoriasis Social as a condition-focused social/health community serving patients, with the key difference of PatientsLikeMe's much larger multi-condition scale.

Broad incumbents

• National Psoriasis Foundation: The dominant nonprofit patient-advocacy organization for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis in the U.S., running forums, educational content, and a community of patients. Functions as the incumbent 'default' destination that any smaller psoriasis community must differentiate against.
• WebMD Communities: Major consumer health information site that has hosted community/forum features around various conditions. Represents a broad incumbent with overlapping community functionality and substantially larger reach than a single-condition site.

Emerging players

• Reddit (r/Psoriasis and r/PsoriaticArthritis): Large, free, and well-trafficked condition-specific subreddits that effectively serve as a psoriasis patient community for blogging and chat-like discussion. Functions as the default 'free' alternative to Psoriasis Social and captures much of the relevant patient conversation.

Regional players

• RareConnect: EURORDIS-hosted online patient community platform focused on rare disease communities across Europe. Comparable as a structured platform hosting condition-specific patient communities, though geographically narrower and oriented toward rare diseases rather than psoriasis.
