Dr Hanson confirmed the diagnosis quickly and suggested treatment. I told him to get it done. I was prepped and injections were quickly made. Results will be seen in 1-2 weeks.

Felt very comfortable with Dr. Eric Hanson, he took time to explain why my hands were breaking out. He also answered every question that I asked with answers that made sense to me. I was sent to him from my primary care physician and I know that he took time to read my medical file because he knew other medical history that he did not require me to fill him in on, that was a refreshing change to most medical visits where you have to recite your entire history. I left the office feeling hopeful that for the first time in over a year that perhaps there is a chance to have normal skin on my hands again. I would recommend Dr. Eric Hanson.

Verified patient
Dr. Hanson was very, very knowledgable about my skin condition that my other doctor did not pick up. He was willing to look at an area that I didn't even go in to see him for, but was concerned about. He talks fast, but we found his staff were willing to explain anything we didn't understand.

I really like him
Overall good. Seemed a bit hurried.
Dr. Hanson is a professional with great skill and I trust him to figure out if something is amiss with my skin and take care of it in the best way possible. I wish he were a little more relational, but that isn't my primary concern.
Great. He was knowledgeable and explained things to me. Office efficient and timely. I like being able to make my appointment online and make it fit my time schedule.
He's great!

Verified patient
Quick...precise...good advice!
Verified patient
He seemed to give a lecture rather than take any interest in my long term problem with hives. His recommendation of Cetirizine proved to be of no help. It does have side affects and they are not pleasant. I felt like I was a bother.
Verified patient
Very impressed. Dr. Hanson took the time to ask me HOW I FELT about my progress. It is refreshing to feel that I am NOT just a number quickly being herded through the office. Dr. Hanson is genuinely caring and concerned about my well being.
