General Practitioners

Warts
Family Practice
Dr. Stephen Colden Cahill is a board-certified dermatologist who has completed a residency in both dermatology and family medicine. Being the only dermatologist in the area that is also fully trained in family medicine, Dr. Cahill’s patient-centered approach emphasizes on evaluating the patient as a whole, while caring for conditions affecting the skin, hair, and nails. He enjoys seeing patients of all ages.

Pregnancy

Internal Medicine
I was born and raised in Troy, Michigan. After graduating from high school, I moved to Philadelphia to complete my undergraduate studies at the University of Pennsylvania, where I earned a Bachelor of Arts in neuroscience. During my time at Penn, I competed on the Varsity Women’s Soccer team and served as a captain for two years. Although I hung up my cleats in 2009, I never relinquished the values that they represent: teamwork, discipline, passion and rising to challenges. Medicine, a team profession, has allowed me to build upon the skills I gained through athletics and thrive on a new turf. In 2010, I returned back to Michigan and attended Michigan State University College of Human Medicine. I spent four years as a medical student in Grand Rapids and earned my M.D. in 2014. During that time, I was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society and Gold Humanism Honor Society. I then moved to Denver to complete my internal medicine internship at Presbyterian St. Luke’s Medical Center and my dermatology residency at the University of Colorado, where I served as chief resident in my final year. After graduating from residency in 2018, I underwent an additional year of fellowship training in Mohs Micrographic Surgery/Dermatologic Oncology at the University of Colorado. This specialized training equipped me with advanced skills in managing skin cancer and performing complex facial reconstruction. I am Board Certified in both Dermatology and Micrographic Dermatologic Surgery, a Fellow of the American College of Mohs Surgery, and an author of numerous scientific publications and textbook chapters.
Prostate Cancer
Daum LM, Reamer EN, Ruterbusch JJ, Liu J, Holmes-Rovner M, Xu J. Patient knowledge and qualities of treatment decisions for localized prostate cancer. J Am Board Fam Med. 2017 May-Jun;30(3):288-297.

Mental Health
Dermatology is an important part of healthcare. Early detection and treatment of skin cancer can save lives. Treating acne and eczema can change lives. This has driven me to pursue a career in skin care and I take pride in joining a practice of great providers. When I meet patients, I strive to understand how their condition is affecting their overall physical and mental health, not just their skin.

General Surgery
Dr. Cahill began his education at Michigan State University where he received a bachelor of science in Human Biology and his medical doctorate. He then went on to complete his internship with the Henry Ford Hospital Systems tracked in general surgery before finishing a residency in family medicine at McLaren Hospital. After practicing in family medicine for several years, his passion for diagnosis and treatment of the skin drove him to return for a second residency in dermatology.
Mohs Surgery
Thank you for your interest in our practice. I look forward to making your experience with us a positive one. Whether you need a skin check or Mohs surgery, you can count on a smile, compassionate care and help understanding your condition and treatment options.

Plastic Surgeons

Botox
As a woman in my mid-30s, I can also identify with patients who have noticed their skin changing over time. I’m happy to provide help and guidance on how to keep your skin looking its best, whether this includes discussing products to use at home, or providing in-office treatments like Botox and fillers.
Cosmetic Surgery

Cosmetic Dermatology
My professional interests include connective tissue diseases (i.e. cutaneous lupus, dermatomyositis), blistering diseases, psoriasis, skin of color, pediatric dermatology, procedural dermatology, cosmetic dermatology, and laser dermatology.
Skin Cancer
My experience working in a hospital for over three years managing multiple organ systems and diseases is an asset to treating my dermatological patients because lots of different conditions can influence your skin. My family has been personally impacted by melanoma which gives me insight on the patient and family perspective. I have also struggled with my own skin conditions and appreciate how feeling good in your skin can really make a difference. Thank you for considering me to have this impact in your life.

Microdermabrasion
The microderm is the ultimate in customized refining treatments. It helps minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, deep cleans pores and creates smooth texture. A diamond chipped hand piece gently refines skin rather than traditional loose crystal microderms. The "Microdermabrasion Plus" is an add-on treatment that enhances further exfoliation by applying a gentle peel solution.
Psoriasis
Craiglow BG, Boyden LM, Hu R, Virtanen M, Su J, Rodriguez G, McCarthy C, Luna P, Larralde M, Humphrey S, Holland KE, Hogeling M, Hidalgo-Matlock B, Ferrari B, Fernandez-Faith E, Drolet B, Cordoro KM, Bowcock AM, Antaya RJ, Ashack K, Ashack RJ, Lifton RP, Milstone LM, Paller AS, Choate KA. CARD14-Associated Papulosquamous Eruption (CAPE): A Spectrum Including Features of Psoriasis and Pityriasis Rubra Pilaris. J Am Acad Dermatol. 2018; 79(3):487-494. PMID: 29477734
