Smart doctor.
Verified patient
This was great but SO EXPENSIVE even with insurance. Went for the standard preventative annual skin screening, turned out to be only partially covered by insurance. On there for 30 mins, great experience, He took two small biopsies and I ended up paying multiple hundreds out of pocket, even with insurance after the labs. They called and told me I should come back to have them removed but literally-cannot afford that. Will just have to risk it. Will have to try a Derm elsewhere. That amount out of pocket after insurance is just quite simply not an option for a standard screening.
