Practice recognized for nearly 300-percent revenue growth, driven by recent expansion into Chesterfield with new office location

TROY, MO, UNITED STATES, August 11, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- St. Louis Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery, a leading provider of Mohs micrographic surgery, medical dermatology, and cosmetic dermatology, today announced it has been ranked No. 2219 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list, the annual ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list is the most prestigious recognition of the nation's most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses, honoring companies that have achieved remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Oracle, and Patagonia.

From 2021 to 2025, St. Louis Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery had a compound annual growth rate of 36.0 percent. This is St. Louis Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery’s second year to achieve an Inc. 5000 ranking. The company first made the list in 2025 at the No. 1651 spot.

"Earning a place on the Inc. 5000 list for a second consecutive year reflects our team's commitment to delivering exceptional care for our patients. Sustained growth is about consistently earning our patients' trust, investing in our team, and building a practice positioned to serve this community for the long term,” said Dr. Brandon T. Beal, MD, FAAD, founder of St. Louis Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery.

The practice's growth is driven in part by its recent expansion into Chesterfield, Missouri. In July, Dr. Laura Wagner, MD joined Dr. Beal's practice, bringing Mohs surgery, non-invasive laser rejuvenation, and full-service cosmetic dermatology to West St. Louis County patients for the first time. Over the next year, Dr. Beal and Dr. Wagner will see patients side by side as the practice transitions to St. Louis Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery ownership.

"I grew up ten minutes from our new office, and this is home, so growing my practice in Troy and Chesterfield, MO is intentional. My father was the second and only radiologist in Troy for 35 years, and now I am the first dermatologist in that same community. I want to bring expert care close to home, because when a neighbor hears the word melanoma, the last thing they need is another hour in the car standing between them and treatment," said Dr. Beal.
Founded in 2020, St. Louis Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery began as a single-provider office in Jacksonville, Florida. The company now operates three locations in two states, serving thousands of patients with a growing team of board-certified dermatologists, skilled physician assistants, and nurse practitioners.

This year's Inc. 5000 recognizes a new class of companies redefining what growth looks like. From AI and advanced manufacturing to healthcare, consumer products, and professional services, these businesses are expanding their impact, creating jobs, and proving that entrepreneurial ambition continues to fuel the U.S. economy. Among the 5,000 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate was 130 percent, and those companies have collectively added more than 627,208 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.

"Every company on the Inc. 5000 has a story of perseverance, smart decision making, and a refusal to sit still," says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. "Their growth reflects more than strong financial performance — it reflects creativity, resilience, and the customer focus required to build companies that make a lasting impact. We congratulate all honorees on this significant achievement."

Inc. will celebrate the honorees at the 2026 Inc. 5000 Conference & Gala, taking place October 14–16 in Dallas, Texas, and the top 500 will be listed in the Fall issue of Inc. Magazine.
