It's always nerve racking trying to find a new doctor. The receptionist was polite and nice and Dr. Camouse made you feel really comfortable and well informed. Loved her staff.

More about Dr. Melissa Camouse, DO
Dr. Camouse received her dermatologic training from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. Prior to residency, she completed a research fellowship at Case Western in the Skin Study Center where she focused on the effects of ultraviolet radiation on human skin.

The office manager was very rude. They also didn't have my information in and I've been there before. I will probably not return due to her staff and not the doctor. The doctor was nice.

I think Dr. Camouse is very professional. She was extremely thorough as she looked at each mole and assessed them. She is cautious, kind and down to earth and I would recommend her to anyone.

Everything was great minus the wait time
September 14, 2014Michael G.Verified patient
She was professional, competent and made my Dad feel comfortable and well cared for. He had 2 shots and a biopsy and still left with a smile! The whole office staff was wonderful. Especially Jennifer.
August 21, 2014Roy B.Verified patient
She was very late when she had a chance to see me. The alternatives she gave me were very little. I prefer a doctor who can explain to me what's going on with me and give me other options for medication.

Excellent service. Dr. Camouse answered all our questions. We didn't even need to get our prescriptions. The staff made arrangements with the pharmacy to have them mailed to us.
