Sheard & Drugge Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery
This practice is the direct descendant of the first dermatology practice in Stamford, CT. In the early 1900s, Dr. George Miller McKee moved from New York City to start a private practice in a white victorian house on Glenbrook Road . Dr. McKee founded the Society for Investigative Dermatology in 1937 and was highly respected for his research and intellect. (In fact, it was Dr. McKee who in 1908 tested the efficacy of chemical peeling agents) Dr. Merlin Stone joined the practice and was known for his pharmaceutical prowess, especially when he and Dr. McKee developed a laboratory in the basement of the office for compounding of new therapies created in their formulary. In 1950, Dr. Charles Sheard left his teaching and clinical position at Columbia Physicians and Surgeons in Manhattan to join the practice on Glenbrook Road. He is a Professor Emeritus at New York-Cornell Medical Center. When he became the sole owner of the practice, he moved it to downtown Stamford on Bedford Street. In 1993, Dr. Rhett Drugge and Dr. Sheard teamed up and moved to their current office site of 50 Glenbrook Road, a mere two blocks from the original practice location.
