QualDerm Partners Suffers Major Data Breach, Exposing Sensitive Patient Information

QualDerm Partners, LLC, a healthcare management services provider specializing in dermatology and skin care, disclosed a data breach affecting thousands of patients after detecting unauthorized activity on its systems on December 24, 2025. The cyberattack occurred between December 23 and 24, 2025, during which an unauthorized actor infiltrated the company’s network and exfiltrated sensitive data.

The breach exposed a range of personally identifiable information (PII) and protected health information (PHI), including patient names, dates of birth, medical record numbers, treatment and diagnosis details, health insurance information, and government-issued IDs such as driver’s license numbers. The incident impacted at least 174,837 individuals in Texas, as reported to the Texas Attorney General’s office on February 24, 2026, though the full scope remains under review.

QualDerm has begun notifying affected individuals and is offering complimentary credit monitoring and identity protection services. A dedicated assistance line (1-855-522-4707) has been established for impacted patients, operating Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern Time. The company continues to investigate the breach’s extent and origins.
