Outstanding ppl. Dr Towry total professionalism
What could be better? Dr. Towry is so gentle when he freezes the heck out of those barnacles of life. He will even tell you a joke, if you are lucky. His staff is always friendly and courteous. The only thing that could make this office any better would be if you got a dum dum lollipop when you leave.
Friendly and efficient staff. They were on time with my appointment. Dr. Towry is always personable and answers all my questions and concerns patiently. Love this office.
Super nice staff and the dermatologist knew what he was doing. He investigated and figured out what was going on with my skin.
I was very satisfied with my visit. The staff was polte and the Dr T. Was knowledgable of all types of spots on the body. I was very relieved after my appointment to know that all was well my next visit is not needed at least for a year unless something should arise. A great dermatologist to see and trust that he knows what he is talking about.
Doctor and staff were great!
Front desk lady was super sweet and very apologetic, unfortunately I showed up and my name wasn't even In the system. No record of the appointment scheduled , but the lovely lady rescheduled me, so hopefully it goes better next time.
