I feel very comfortable about going to this dermatology office. Parking is easy and since the office always has a quick wait time, has been free each time I have visited (4). I have seen two staff members, one a dermatologist and the other a physicians assistant, and they are both excellent. My PA (Patel) recently found a cancer in a seborrheic keratosis spot that was previously treated and removed and returned. She took it out leaving practically no sign or scar. I am very thankful for this office!!

They were able to help me take care of the issue I went for the same day. It was as painless as possible and I now have more peace of mind. I will definitely be back.

Krisha Patel is the best ever. I was with her before she came to this office, and I am glad I found her again. Easy to talk to, knowledgeable, efficient, and just plain great.

They were kind and listened but did not want to address the bumps I have all over my neck and body. I even suggested I could pay after hearing insurance doesn’t pay.

Everyone at the office was friendly and supportive. The doctor listened to my concerns and clearly explained the reasons they were and weren't doing things. I felt confident in my treatment plan going forward and I look forward to my future visits here.

Personable, friendly, professional. Was able to check on my concerns, was familiar with the situation and diagnosed immediately. Able to treat immediately and kept my anxiety at a low level. First time with a dermatologist and I will return to her if the situation arises.
