Dermatologist for Toddler with Eczema Issues?

Hi. Does anyone have a recommendation for a pediatric dermatologist? Our daughter is 2 years old and has been battling skin issues since she was an infant. We currently take her to Kenneth Bloom at Dermatology Center for Children and Young adults, but she's not showing any signs of improvement, and all he's doing is upping the medications we give her.
