Doctor is very skilled and did an excellent job. The only area for improvement was the 40 minute wait.

My visits with Dr. Henderson are always great; from the time I enter the waiting area and being greeted by his outstanding team, to being escorted to the exam room. Dr. Henderson is professional, friendly, and so knowledgeable, I always feel absolutely safe and well cared for.

I would not go to this place ever.
Sent my insurance online 1 month beforehand and received approval & appointment.
1 day before my appointment the doctor said he doesn't carry my insurance.
Very unprofessional and lacking the needs of patients.

Dr. Henderson was friendly and easy to talk to. He was able to perform my mole removal on my 1st visit and it was nearly painless. The office staff was nice and made me comfortable. It is a small and quiet office.

Dr. Henderson was very nice. He was able to help me with what I came for and we also discussed a cosmetic procedure which I wanted at a future time. The price for that procedure was very reasonable. I would recommend him to my friends and family.
