Miscommunication on products that need a prescription and don’t. Waiting follow up on questions I’ve asked regarding PRP. Communication outside of phone calls is hard to come by with office.

Very impersonal. No small talk Went quickly to what areas do you have concern, looked at those areas, those me the medical terms for what pimple and spots are called which I don't remember and told me there is no danger in the areas of concern. Waited for about 30 minutes, doctors visit took about 10-15 minutes.

Very friendly staff. I came in very busy on my phone from work and the girl at the front desk was still extremely nice and understanding. I was seen almost right away and every person I came into contact with was wonderful. The doctor himself was also amazing. He was very nice, quick, and to the point. He came up with a plan for my issue right away and we were done! Would recommend him to anyone in search of a dermatologist.
February 23, 2022Jezabelle F.Verified patient
My first experience was great. I didn’t have to fill out any papers because I completed them online. Dr. Carter came right on in within 5 minutes. He listened to all of my issues and explained the choices that I have to help me with my problems. Awesome!
February 16, 2022Aja F.Verified patient
Overall I had a good experience here. The front desk staff was awesome and super friendly--I felt kind of rushed when taken to the back, but it was my first appointment and I didn't really know what to expect. My whole appointment was only 10 mins which was convenient.
I'll probably come here again for my annual skin exams but find another dermatologist/esthetician for skincare needs regarding my face and skin products.

I had a pretty routine visit with Dr. Carter. It was quick, easy, and most importantly still thorough. Overall good experience.
July 27, 2020Travis H.Verified patient
It was great! We had a little trouble with forms, since it was all on line... But the visit was quick but not rushed, and I felt comfortable the whole time. It’s kind of hard to judge completely having only met with him on line.. But I give him a thumbs up!
