Dermatology Services for Reedley and the Kings River Valley
The Reedley area’s agricultural heritage means a large portion of the local population has significant lifelong sun exposure — from fieldwork, orchard management, packing, and other outdoor occupations that are the backbone of this community’s economy. This occupational UV exposure creates elevated rates of skin cancer, actinic keratoses, and premature skin aging that require expert dermatologic evaluation and treatment. At Dehesa Dermatology, we provide exactly that — right here in the greater Fresno-Clovis area, accessible to Reedley residents in under 30 minutes.
Our services available to Reedley patients include:
- Skin Cancer Screening and Treatment: Full-body dermoscopic skin exams, mole evaluations, biopsies, excision, and Mohs micrographic surgery — the most precise skin cancer removal available.

At Dehesa Dermatology, we deeply respect the agricultural communities that form the backbone of the Central Valley. Reedley’s farmworkers, orchard managers, and outdoor laborers deserve the same access to expert dermatologic care that urban residents take for granted — and our practice was built with exactly that in mind. Dr. Dehesa’s bilingual capability (English and Spanish), his deep community roots through UCSF Fresno, and his commitment to making specialist care accessible have made Dehesa Dermatology a trusted resource for Central Valley patients across all backgrounds and occupations.
We also understand that patients from Reedley may not have easy access to specialty care locally, which is why we work hard to be as accessible as possible — accepting a wide range of insurance plans, assisting with prior authorizations, offering online scheduling, and providing new patient paperwork online to streamline your first visit.

Dr. Dehesa performs thorough dermoscopic evaluations and takes the time to explain every finding clearly, making first-time skin check patients feel informed and comfortable throughout the process. Call (559) 951-9000 to schedule your first exam at Dehesa Dermatology.
Can agricultural workers from Reedley get skin cancer screenings at Dehesa Dermatology?
Absolutely. Agricultural workers are among the highest-risk groups for skin cancer in California — years of outdoor field work in the intense San Joaquin Valley sun create cumulative UV damage that frequently leads to actinic keratoses, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and in some cases melanoma. We are committed to making specialist-level skin cancer screening accessible to the Reedley farming community. Call (559) 951-9000 to schedule your screening appointment.
Do you offer Spanish-language care for Reedley patients?
Yes. Dr. Dehesa is fully bilingual in English and Spanish and provides complete consultations, diagnoses, and treatment explanations in Spanish for patients who prefer it. For Reedley’s significant Spanish-speaking population — including farmworkers and agricultural families — Dehesa Dermatology offers a welcoming, bilingual specialist dermatology experience that is genuinely rare in the Central Valley.

We accept a range of insurance plans including Medi-Cal for qualifying patients and services.

What skin conditions should Reedley residents watch for?
Given the significant outdoor occupational exposure in the Reedley area, the most important conditions to watch for include actinic keratoses (rough, scaly patches on sun-exposed skin that can progress to squamous cell carcinoma), new or changing moles (potential early melanoma), non-healing sores or unusual growths (potential basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma), and inflammatory conditions like eczema and psoriasis that may be exacerbated by heat, sweat, and environmental exposures. If you notice any of these, don’t delay — call (559) 951-9000 and schedule an evaluation at Dehesa Dermatology.
