Dr. Nikki D. Hill, MD, FAAD

Dr. Nikki D. Hill, MD, FAAD, is the founder and medical director of SOCAH Center in Atlanta, GA, and a board-certified dermatologist nationally recognized for the diagnosis and treatment of medical hair loss disorders. An Atlanta native, she opened SOCAH Center in 2015 in the Northlake area so that patients from Atlanta, Decatur, Tucker and Brookhaven could have hair, scalp and skin concerns evaluated with the same medical care. Her focus on trichology, the medical study of hair and scalp disorders, sits on a foundation of extensive training in traditional dermatology. She is also sensitive to patients who prefer a more holistic path to healing, and she builds every plan around the person in the exam chair.
