DALLAS--()--Platinum Dermatology Partners ("Platinum") announces a new market expansion through its partnership with Skin & Cancer Associates of Florida ("SCA").

We believe this partnership with Platinum will allow us to better care for the South Florida community through access to new shared resources and broader collaboration,” said SCA CEO Reuven Porges.
