What Makes Us Different from the Rest

As a patient of Florida Skin Center, you not only get excellent dermatology care, but you become part of a practice that believes in giving back.   Dr. Badia and her staff at Florida Skin Center believe strongly in giving back to our community.  Throughout the year, you can see Dr. Badia and her staff involved in various projects and community events. In fact, Florida Skin Center has a volunteer committee which is made up of dedicated staff members that find projects and collect donations throughout the year to help those less fortunate in the community. 

Please visit  http://floridaskincenter.com/volunteercommitee.asp to see what we are collecting for this month.

We annually work with March of Dimes, which is a national organization that helps raise money and awareness for preventing premature babies, and most recently attended their March of Dimes Walk.  We also are involved in Adopt a Highway, Edison Junior Parade and the Hispanic Chamber of Fort Myers.  Each year we hold our Grab a Gobbler event where we give out over a 100 turkeys to needy families.

Dr. Badia is involved in an organization called Girls Going Places.  This is an organization that educates young women about the financial and entrepreneurial opportunities available to them in the community.  Dr Badia also goes to local elementary schools once a month to educate our youth about the importance of protecting their skin from the sun.

The event that we hold most dear to our hearts is an annual event called Children’s Day: Dermatology from the Heart.  Dr. Badia thought what better way to give back to her community than to use her expertise in dermatology for those who need it most.  On Children’s Day, Dr. Badia and her providers give free pediatric skin exams from 9am-3pm free of charge. This year’s Children Day event will be held on June 18^th.  The event is open to any child, because it is never too early to have your child’s skin evaluated by a dermatologist, especially for those of us growing up in Florida.  For more details about this event please go to http://floridaskincenter.com/default.asp .

These are just a few of the events we are involved in throughout the year.  Please visit our website to get updated on our newest project or event.

We hope to see you soon.
