Mount Nittany Health has expanded its dermatology services with a new, larger location designed to improve access to care. The new dermatology practice opened on Aug. 31 in a 7,296-square-foot facility at 2188 Sandy Drive in Ferguson Township. Mount Nittany Health acquired the property , which was formerly owned by State College Family Medicine, in August 2025 for $2.3 million. Bringing dermatology services under one roof and expanding the practice aims to meet the needs of the Centre County community, Mount Nittany officials said.
