However, the treatments provided by dermatologists and pediatricians may differ.

Compared to pediatricians, dermatologists saw older patients (mean age 15.5\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.12 vs 13.5\u00a0\u00b1\u00a00.35; <jats:italic>P\u00a0<\/jats:italic>&lt;\u00a0.001), as well as a higher proportion of white patients (92.5% vs 76.3%; <jats:italic>P\u00a0<\/jats:italic>&lt;\u00a0.001), non\u2010Hispanic patients (89.5% vs 81.6%; <jats:italic>P\u00a0<\/jats:italic>&lt;\u00a0.001), and patients with private insurance (84.6% vs 67.8%; <jats:italic>P\u00a0<\/jats:italic>&lt;\u00a0.001). Compared to patients seen by dermatologists, patients seen by pediatricians were 68% less likely to receive topical retinoids (aOR 0.32, 95% CI 0.22\u20100.46), 38% less likely to receive topical antibiotics (aOR 0.62, 95% CI 0.41\u20100.95), and 48% less likely to receive oral antibiotics (adjusted aOR 0.52, 95% CI 0.36\u20100.75).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our findings demonstrate that pediatricians prescribe topical retinoids, topical antibiotics, and oral antibiotics less frequently compared to dermatologists.
