The practice was founded by Dr. Calvin Dillaha and Dr. Thomas Jansen, who discussed starting the clinic while attending the 1955 American Academy of Dermatology meeting in Chicago. These two pioneers were also responsible for establishing the dermatology clinic and resident training program at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Although not the first dermatologic practice in Arkansas, Little Rock Dermatology is now the longest established dermatology clinic. Originally housed in the Walden Building in 1956 and known simply as the Dermatology Clinic, the practice moved to the Doctor’s Building in 1962.

Dermatologists are physicians devoted to the medical and surgical treatment of diseases pertaining to the skin, hair, and nails. To be designated a specialist, a doctor must complete at least four years in a certified residency program after completing an initial four years of medical school and several years of undergraduate studies. People with a personal or family history of skin cancer should be seen on a regular basis, at least yearly. Anyone with a new or changing skin lesion should be seen without delay. The team diagnoses and treats many different conditions of the skin, hair, and nails. For post-treatment care, patients are advised to clean biopsy or treatment sites daily with mild soap and water and apply vaseline or polysporin at least 2-3 times daily. General recommendations include applying a sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 30 or greater that protects against ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation, applied 30 minutes prior to going outside and reapplied at least every 2 hours.

The clinic strives to see patients on time and in a professional manner. It takes Medicare and Medicaid as well as almost all private insurances, though patients are advised to call to confirm acceptance. Some insurances also require a referral, which must be on hand in order to confirm the appointment. The practice is closed on July 4th, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve, and New Years Day.
