Very friendly staff. Made the experience easy and comfortable.

#62026-06-27

Didn't have to wait long to see to get into the room, or for the doctor to come in. The doctor & medical assistant took the time to explain the medications, when I should take them, how much I should use and what they would do to my skin.

What can we do better?

(answers:373)

Evening hours

#12026-06-26

I am a little annoyed that I called to say I was on my way and I was told that I may not get here in time and will probably have to reschedule. Then when I got here, I filled out the paperwork then had to wait 20 minutes to be seen. It would be nice to know the receptionist's name so I know who I am calling when I have questions. It would be nice to have WiFi available during the wait.

#22011-06-22 17:06:20

super happy with visit

#32026-03-16

everything was wonderful

#42010-08-25 12:47:35

Don't change a thing

#52010-12-14 13:17:28

service was excellent

#62026-06-20

I do not like waiting long periods of time in either the reception area or exam room fort he Dr to come in. The exam with the Dr should be relatively close to the appointment time

#72025-11-21

I would like you to offer evening and/or Saturday hours for both dermatology and esthetician appointments.

#82010-11-04 16:32:44

Everything to date that your office has performed has been done professionally and expeditiously. It's a pleasure to deal with all the staff.

#92026-06-02

Ask patient if they have any pain before asking them to waiting three weeks for appointment
