About
At Kittridge Dermatology, Dr. Ashley Kittridge runs Pittsburgh's first and only direct care dermatology practice. She opened the South Hills practice on July 23, 2018, bringing transparent, time-based pricing to a specialty where billing surprises are common. The practice carries no membership fee and bills no insurance companies. Patients pay directly, and every fee appears publicly on the website before the visit.
Dr. Kittridge limits her daily schedule to approximately 15 patients. That focus shapes everything from appointment length to the depth of each exam. She dispenses medications in-office at near-cost pricing and charges $75 for cash-pay pathology, well below typical rates. Established patients reach her through the HIPAA-compliant Spruce Health App anytime. The practice serves both adults and children across general, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology.
