“Matt is the best! He’s the first derm I’ve ever been to, after selecting him through extensive research, and I was not disappointed. I had a video call with him for my first visit, and he recommended that in-person is better (agreed) since he was able to do the injection in my scalp for a bald spot I had due to stress. The hair started growing back as soon a week later. Fast forward, this was technically my third visit (second office visit), and I booked the appointment two hours in advance the same day. This time I had the same issue with a bald spot due to stress in my beard so went straight for the injection. While I was there, I got a full exam done and during it asked if I could get a skin tag removed, and he said it would be quick. I didn’t realize quick meant within a few seconds. He numbed the area then bam! cauterized it and I was outta there…all within a 10 minute timeframe… crazy I know! Don’t hesitate, go straight to him.”
