Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Diane Walder

Sourced directly from Dr. Diane Walder's social posts and replies.

What is the practice's stance on tanning and skin cancer prevention?
Every tan is a sign of skin damage, and tanning beds can increase melanoma risk by up to 75%. For the look of a tan, safer alternatives like spray tans or sunless tanning products are recommended. The practice emphasizes that protecting your skin today matters more than any trend, and early detection is crucial. Patients should get any new or changing spots checked.

What are the practice's recommendations for daily sun protection and skin exams?
Sun protection is one of the most powerful ways to reduce skin cancer risk. SPF should be incorporated into your daily routine and reapplied when outdoors. Annual skin exams are highly recommended.
Source →
How should patients perform self-skin checks and when should they seek professional help?
Not all skin cancers appear in expected locations, so self-skin checks should include easy-to-miss areas like your scalp, behind your ears, under your nails, and the soles of your feet. Patients should schedule a skin exam if they notice a spot that is new, changing, or not healing.
Source →
What are the ABCDEs of melanoma and when should a patient seek an exam?
Knowing what to look for is one of the simplest ways to protect your skin. Remember the ABCDEs of melanoma: Asymmetry, Border irregularity, Color variation, Diameter (larger than 6mm), and Evolving (changing in size, shape, or color). If a spot is new, changing, or looks different from the rest, do not wait and schedule a skin exam.
Source →
How should skincare routines be adjusted for seasonal changes?
Skin changes in response to seasonal shifts. Warmer weather, increased humidity, and more sun exposure can lead to issues like breakouts, dryness, or increased sensitivity. It's helpful to switch to a lighter moisturizer, use sunscreen daily, avoid over-exfoliating, and reassess products that may be too heavy. Spring is an excellent time to prioritize and improve skin health, and an annual skin check is recommended.
Source →
How can stress impact skin, hair, and nails, and when should a dermatology provider be consulted?
Stress can be a contributing factor if your skin is breaking out, your hair is shedding more than usual, or your nails feel weak and brittle. Visible changes in your skin, hair, and nails can signal that something is amiss. If something doesn't seem right, a dermatology provider can help evaluate the cause and recommend appropriate next steps.
Source →
What are the signs of Rosacea and how is it managed?
Constant redness, visible veins, and flare-ups are distinct from simple blushing. If your skin often looks flushed, feels sensitive, or reacts easily, it may indicate Rosacea, a common skin condition. With the right care, Rosacea can be managed. It's recommended to assess your skin and schedule an appointment with a dermatology provider if you suspect Rosacea.
Source →
What is the practice's advice on social media skincare trends?
Not all skincare hacks found on social media are safe or effective. Dermatologists are observing an increase in skin irritation and barrier damage from viral routines and excessive use of active ingredients. Before trying an online trend, consider if it's scientifically supported. Your skin deserves expert guidance, and it's recommended to consult a dermatology professional before attempting new skincare trends.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2025)

$492

Payments

25

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Diane Walder received $492 across 25 payments in 2025. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
