What’s in a name?

Long before returning to the Carolinas, our founder, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Thomas Knackstedt envisioned a dermatology practice named Apex Skin Center. The reason is simple: The term “Apex” defines the highest point, pinnacle, or peak. At Apex Skin Center, it is this commitment to the highest level of patient care and clinical excellence that we pursue in our name and core values.

So whether you’re in Fuquay-Varina, Holly Springs, Apex, Cary, or in the beautiful surrounding communities and counties, Apex Skin Center welcomes you. We are here for you and your skin.
