He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Dermatology and a Fellow of the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery. Before joining ADCS, Dr Solomon completed a varied career: first as a full time Assistant Professor at Boston University Department of Dermatology; then the Director of the Dermatology Department of MWCHP (a Blue Cross HMO); in private practice in Massachusetts for 17 years; and as cosmetic dermatologist for a hospital based dermatology practice in Illinois. During this time, he maintained academic associations with Tufts Medical School, University of Illinois, and Southern Illinois University and continued being involved in clinical research. He has been an active member of multiple medical societies including serving on several committees. These include the American Academy of Dermatology, Massachusetts Medical Society, Illinois Medical Society, and American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery, Royal Society of Medicine (United Kingdom), International Society for Hair Replacement Surgery, American Contact Dermatitis Society, American Society of Cosmetic Dermatology and Aesthetic Surgery, Society for Investigative Dermatology, Association of Clinical Research Professionals, and Society of Clinical Research Associates. As Director of Ameriderm Research, Dr Solomon is in charge of creating and establishing a new academic research model. ADCS is the largest dermatology practice with over 60 offices, seeing over 450,000 patients per year. The goal is to make available the latest clinical drugs and devices to our patients as well as make the large patient population available to the pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers. We currently have three clinical trial sites and are involved in over 20 studies. Through collaboration of our many physicians, PA’s and NRP’s as well as research physicians within our communities, we are expanding the number of sites as well as the disease states for which we accept studies to include a broad base of dermatologic studies as well as non-critical general medical problems such as stable type II diabetes. Furthermore, Dr Solomon maintains two academic appointments: Assistant Clinical Professor, Dermatology at University of Illinois College of Medicine, Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), Illinois as well as Associate Professor, Dermatology at University of Central Florida, College of Medicine in Orlando (soon Lake Nona) Florida. Through these appointments Dr Solomon is involved in both teaching as well as more basic clinical research collaborations. Not only does Dr Solomon travel to Illinois but ADCS has an Advanced Elective in Dermatology available in Florida for UIUC Medical Students. Dr Solomon is involved in multiple committees related to establishing the curriculum for the new UCF Medical School.
