It's great that you're looking into the right steps for your daughter's care. Typically, some insurance plans require a referral from the PCP before seeing a specialist, but others allow direct appointments with an in-network dermatologist. It’s best to check your insurance policy or contact their customer service to be sure. By the way, when taking breaks, my kids love playing Fnaf – it’s a fun way to unwind!
