I had seen Dr Damstetter for a procedure in 2019 while she was still with Rush. I was not necessarily looking for her in particular but once I saw her on zocdoc, I was sold. Very professional.

The staff are SO lovely. The person who brought me into the back room was a male assistant. I’ve never before had a male provider offer to step out and let a female provider take over if it would make me more comfortable - that was very impressive and considerate (even if unnecessary in my case, I don’t mind male providers). The doctor was kind and attentive and answered all my questions. Happy to have found a good derm!

Dr. Elizabeth is so kind and she addressed all my concerns. I will highly recommend her because I was suffering of severe eczemas in my hands for 5 years before I met her, I was in pain and in shame and no dermatology or allergist can cure my severe eczema. Then we found Dr. Damstetter she examined my hands and skin then started with the treatment then it worked and up to now I am a happy ?? camper with Dr. Damstetter care. For two years my skin is clear and my eczema is under control . Thanks ?? a lot Doctor!

I was looking for a new dermatologist due to the retirement of my former one. I searched online and was very impressed by Reserve Dermatology's web site and Dr. Damstetter's credentials, so I booked an appointment - a good decision. I could not have been more pleased. Dr. Damstetter is now my go to dermatologist.
March 9, 2024Allen M.Verified patient
Dr. Damsetter is super nice, diligent, very professional and cuts straight to the chase when needed. Wait time was almost nonexistent. I’m looking forward to future visits and hope she stays in business for as long as possible.
