Just great!
April 22, 2013John H.Verified patient
I felt very rushed. I got to his office early for my appointment, waited over a half an hour and then spent all of 5 minutes with him. He spoke very fast and was out of there before I knew it. This was my first time seeing him and I do not plan on going back. He hardly even looked at my skin, which is the reason why I went to see him.

Excellent care.

Had to wait a little while to be seen - however, I am attributing that to being a new patient.
Otherwise - was a great visit. Very knowledgeable and friendly.
November 14, 2011Christopher D.Verified patient
Dr K was awesome as usual! He's has the BEST bedside manner of any dermatologist and has credentials, knowledge and skills that let me know I'm receiving the BEST care possible.
September 25, 2011Angela W.Verified patient
I would not recommend this Dr. if you are interested in a full body skin cancer screening. The entire appointment lasted 5 minutes - not a very detailed screening. Definitely not what I am used to with my previous dermatologist located in another state. Overall very disapointed and felt it was a waste of my time and money.
