I love the new office. It's a bit farther away but very nice. Dr. Rodney was wonderful as always. She has really helped my acne to clear up.

Verified patient
Excellent service by both the doctor and her staff!
Verified patient
The appointment was so delayed, I ended up missing a following appointment I had scheduled for later that day and had to pay a late fee. It seems that multiple patients are all assigned the same appointment time so they must’ve known in advance that everything was going to be late. It’s very frustrating and inconsiderate to waste my time in that way. Additionally, when the doctor did arrive, she seemed to rush through my chart and prescribed me medications that are unavailable and my pharmacy is still waiting a week later to get in contact for a substitute. Overall, very disappointed
Verified patient

Excellent encounter !
Verified patient
Everyone was very nice Dr Rodney was super knowledgable. Was able to quickly identify and treat my mole. Also discussed follow-up and made a plan for the next visit.
Verified patient
Dr. Rodney is surely knowledgeable about skin care. However, I felt a bit put off that within 3 minutes of our first meeting, she recommended an expensive in-office treatment, not generally covered by insurance, without explaining much about side effects (ie, sun sensitivity, and I was headed to a baseball game after where I would be sitting in direct sun for hours). The office seems high-volume, and some may prefer her super-direct manner, but to me it felt more like high-pressure sales than medical care. I probably will not be back.
I was seen with 10 minutes of my appointment which was a wonderful improvement from my last dermatologist. She did a thorough skin exam and actually asked how my experience was. First doctor to show such thoughtfulness.
Verified patient
The office staff i unprofessional and so is she! Patients do not matter to her. I wound not recommend her to anyone. She was extremely late for my appointment the two times I visited. I had enough and switched doctors.
*********LISTEN TO THE BAD REVIEWS ***** I'm going to keep this short and simple do not go to her because she does not truly have compassion or care for her patients. I waited over an hour on my first and last visit with her just to be rushing when I actually met her face to face. It was not a caring bone in her body she just wanted to rush and get the next person in. I don't know how she is getting all these good reviews, because when I was there it was a waiting room full of people complaining.I ask one person is it always like this and they stated yes. Starting to think the good reviews are fake.
Verified patient
This was my very first visit with Dr. Rodney. I felt she was very thorough, although it felt a little rushed. I'll be able to gauge more after a follow-up visit.
Dr. Rodney is an extremely talented dermatologist. She was smooth and precise in her surgical technique. I will definitely see her again for all of my dermatological needs.
Verified patient
Wonderful amazing will be back

Verified patient
She was really kind, answered all my questions and was receptive. The overall experience could've been better, but it was a nice time. Smooth sailing
Verified patient
I love her professionalism and her bedside manner in taking time to discuss your concerns. I have already recommended her to one of my friends
Verified patient
Great bedside manor! Very knowledgeable!
We spent more time completing the forms and speaking with the nurse than with the doctor. She seemed rushed and rehearsed and didn’t take the time to meet and learn anything about the patient.
I've been to this office twice. Wait time is more than an hour and when you finally get to see her, she rushes you. Listens for 2 minutes and then recommends a generic treatment. Also, when you call the office, she picks up the phone and pretends you are not really speaking to the doctor. Unfortunately, her beautiful accent gives it away every time. I found this to be very unprofessional.
Verified patient
A pleasant experience. The staff ensured you were taken care of in courteous and engaging manner. They displayed an high level of thoughtfulness to customers. The consultation with Dr. Rodney was reassuring and alleviated what ever anxiety I had.
Verified patient
My visit to Dr. Rodney was great. She was friendly and professional. As a new patient, I was able to book a last-minute appointment, and she treated my skin ailment with a quick in-office procedure. I recommend her to anyone who is in need of a compassionate, knowledgeable dermatologist.
Would reccomend the office to anyone!
Verified patient
I read some reviews that said she rushed and her accent made it hard to understand. She WAS very busy but listened to all my concerns. Her accent was light and sweet and easy to understand. She was professional and offered solutions. The staff was very nice. Drs have to see as many as they can to pay for a practice and unfortunately, they get backed up. She may need to make 30 min appt slots instead of 20 if possible.
Verified patient
One of the best experiences I’ve had in awhile from a doctors office. Friendly, prompt, and professional every step of the way! Staff are wonderful and Dr. Rodney was incredible. I appreciate how proactive she was with my skin issues. This will now be my permanent dermatology office!
Verified patient
Love her!!
Verified patient
Dr. Rodney was an unexpected pleasure. Her bedside manner was amazing. She listened to my concerns and understood them. She explained to me what my diagnosis was and performed a skin biopsy to help get a better understanding of what’s going on. The biopsy went on without a hitch or any pain. I can’t wait to see the end results once treatment begins. I love that the office is so tech savvy, checked in and completed my paperwork on an iPad. There was a self serve beverage center with a Keurig and a variety of coffees and teas and a mini cooler filled with bottled water which helped me to relax before being seen. My prescription was sent to my pharmacy and ready for pickup before I made it to my car!!! I’m looking forward my follow up in 10 days. I would follow Dr. Rodney to any location
Verified patient
It was very fast and l will see her again.
