NavaDerm Partners

NavaDerm Partners

NavaDerm Partners was formed through the recapitalization of five dermatology groups in New York and New Jersey (per firm website). The physician-led organization is co-headed by Dr. Roy Geronemus in New York and Dr. Sapna Palep in Manhattan, who each lead their respective group practices under the platform. The platform provides comprehensive general dermatology across medical, surgical, and cosmetic procedures. The consolidated physician network now exceeds 30 dermatologists. In the most recent year the group recorded over 100,000 patient visits, indicating a large regional outpatient practice. The strategy focuses on clinical independence and quality care, rather than direct control of operations. The firm does not publicly disclose AUM, total deployment, or team size beyond physician count. The model functions as a services roll-up with no disclosed adjacent investment vehicles or philanthropic structures. No recent capital event or recruitment activity has been reported in the last 24 months. NavaDerm's structural differentiator is its physician-led governance model: the clinical leadership remains embedded in the constituent practices, distinguishing it from traditional private-equity rollups that typically install external management teams. This structure may allow greater retention of patient relationships and physician alignment.
