Dermatologists in Olympia: a regional center

Olympia draws dermatology care from well beyond its limits: 17 dermatology providers practice here, 30.6 per 100,000 residents, 5.5 times the US 5.5 and above Washington's 5.8. That is one for about 3,300 residents.[NPI][ACS]

The wider area is thinly supplied: 32 dermatology providers within 25 miles of Olympia, 3.7 per 100,000 of the 861,125 people living there.[NPI][ZCTA]

Of the 17 dermatology providers in the Olympia-Lacey-Tumwater area, 100% are in Olympia itself. Thurston County, home to most of Olympia, has 17 dermatology providers for 296,640 residents, 5.7 per 100,000.[NPI][OMB]

Where local dermatology offices are fewer, as in Olympia, an online intake for pattern hair loss works the same from any address. Sudden or patchy hair loss, or a sore, red or scaly scalp, is for a dermatologist in person.

Dermatology providers registered in the NPI registry as of October 23, 2026, by practice address: in the city means the address names the city; the 10- and 25-mile counts add every provider whose ZIP code center lies that close. Dermatopathologists, physician assistants and nurse practitioners are not counted, and the rates use ACS 2019–2023 population.

Olympia by age: the years hair loss is common

Olympia's median age is 39.2, close to Washington's 38.2. Men 40 and older number 11,538, or 20.8% of the city, less than Washington's 23.2%. By their 50s, more than half of men show some pattern hair loss.[1][ACS]

6,685 women are 45 to 64, 12.0% of residents, less than Washington's 12.1%: the years around menopause, when, the American Academy of Dermatology says, female pattern hair loss becomes more common.[2][ACS]

Nobody counts pattern hair loss city by city. Across the US it affects an estimated 50 million men and 30 million women, so this page gives ages, not an estimate.[1]

Hair shedding after pregnancy in Olympia

Washington recorded 83,118 births to its residents in 2024 (final NCHS data), 10.4 per 1,000 residents, the 29th-highest (tied) of 51. Olympia's 55,583 residents are 0.7% of Washington's 7,740,984.[NCHS][ACS]

Many new mothers notice clumps of hair coming out a few months after delivery. Dermatologists say it peaks about four months after birth and is temporary, with fullness usually back by the baby’s first birthday.[3]

No finasteride or spironolactone for anyone pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, and no minoxidil tablets while breastfeeding. After that, thinning that lasts past a year may be female pattern hair loss, which a physician can assess online.[4][5][6]
