What I loved the most is everyone that I came in contact with as far as staff was so nice! I was on time for my appointment and was seen on time. The Dr was so very nice, professional, concerned. A great listener and couldn’t give me a solution but what made smile was “WE are going to figure this out. After all of these years going through skin issues I feel I have found the help I need! THANK YOU!

I was really looking forward to my appointment as his reviews are stellar. When I arrived I was informed they no longer accept my insurance. This was probably an error of Zocdoc's.

I really appreciated my visit with Dr. Harris, he has a friendly and disarming demeanor that's great for a medical setting and his clinic feels small town and homey in the best kind of way.
