Dr. Yongbo Jia is Head of Dermatology at Chongqing West District Hospital and Deputy Director of the hospital’s Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center. He is a vice chief physician and a licensed aesthetic attending, and he is the lead physician of this site.
His practice is general dermatology in the full sense: establishing a diagnosis before any treatment is chosen, working up rashes that have not settled elsewhere, and managing chronic skin disease over years rather than weeks. Because the service sits inside a tertiary general hospital, the laboratory, pathology, mycology, and imaging support needed to reach a diagnosis is available on site — and where a skin sign points to disease elsewhere in the body, the service works alongside the relevant hospital specialties rather than sending the patient away to start again.
Consultations begin with the history and a proper examination, including dermoscopy of anything suspicious. Where the diagnosis cannot be made on clinical grounds alone, testing is arranged — and where the answer would change the treatment, a skin biopsy is offered and explained before it is performed.

Diagnosis first
Most treatment failures in dermatology trace back to a missed diagnosis or an abandoned routine. Getting the diagnosis right, then staying with the maintenance plan, is what quietly produces results.
