Hidradenitis suppurativa specialists in the US, state by state
Finding a clinic that knows HS shouldn't be another battle.
It took me years to find someone who truly knew what hidradenitis suppurativa was. My first lump was removed as "just an ingrown hair", and I wandered from hospital to hospital before a dermatologist finally gave the disease a name. This page is the map I wish I'd had back then.
Here you'll find 57 centers: specialty clinics with a named HS program, or dermatology departments with a documented HS care pathway, each with the institutional source that confirms it and the date of our last check. No rankings, no judgements: only verifiable facts, in alphabetical order. Last check: September 15, 2026.
States without verified centers yet
As of September 15, 2026, our dataset has no verified centers in the states below. That does not mean they don't exist: it means we haven't yet found an institutional page confirming one. In the meantime, ask your primary care doctor for a dermatology referral, or check the nearest state with listed centers.

Before your visit
Ten minutes go by fast. Walk in with your questions ready.
I put together the checklist of questions to ask your dermatologist I wish I'd had at my first visits: symptoms to note down, useful information to bring and questions not to forget. It's free, no email required.
Method and transparency
How I decide what makes it into this guide.
A website mentioning HS is not enough. Every card must be traceable back to a public, institutional source.
-
Institutional sources only
I use official pages of hospitals, universities and health systems. Every card shows the link it is based on.
-
Two levels of evidence, stated
"Dedicated HS clinic" when the institution names a specific HS service. "Documented pathway" when the dermatology department publicly documents HS care.
-
Alphabetical order, never rankings
No center pays to be listed or highlighted. The guide assigns no scores and expresses no preferences.
-
Quarterly checks
Information changes. That's why I publish the last-checked date on every card and re-verify the sources every quarter.
-
Reports help, sensitive data doesn't
You can point me to a missing center or an error with a link to the official page. Please do not send medical records, photos or clinical information.
