This is the best Dr office I've been to. Janet Haley, NP is amazing. And I had many issues she solved. Thankful.

This place does accept BCBS insurance, but It's important to know that the labratory they use for pathogy results does not accept insurance. My lab bill was 8x my doctor visit bill. I would not recommend this place if you think you'll need anything biopsied. Refuse any biopsies if they offer. It won't be in network.

Very disappointed in this practice. I visited a year ago because I was concerned about a mole, "sticker test" ruled it benign and told not to worry however a recent biopsy showed it was a late stage pre cancer. Doctor didn't even perform the test himself, rather sent a nurse in to perform the test because he was "uncomfortable" regarding the location on my body. I'm finding another dermatologist.

Two stars because it was a simple and easy process for me to get scheduled and I was able to schedule for first appt within a week of contacting the office. I've deducted stars because the nurse that I saw in office seemed rushed and uninterested during my visit. Her overall demeanor was off putting and did not make me feel welcomed. When I called in today about an issue I had while picking up my prescriptions (due to no part of the office), the two representatives that I spoke with on the phone also seemed to be in a hurry during our call.
Although my questions were addressed, I was cut off multiple times during the call and they were both short. Seems like everyone could use customer service training. A perky tone does not negate rudeness.

This is by far the best group of people. Dr. Catherine has treatment my daughter and myself for years. She cares about her patients. Stacy is the best nurse. Taylor is amazing at facials and skinpen treatment. Taylor really knows her stuff. I'm so happy that we found them.

I love them here. Very nice and informative for my son visits. They go out of there way to help. I need them to send a paper to my insurance. So I emailed the after hours on Friday and Sunday I received a message that the sent papers in and it was approved all on a day they are closed.

Report
After a recent visit at this office, the attending Dr. stated and put in writing, that if I had any additional questions to contact him. There was no contact information. Went to the office requesting to speak or gain a contact to follow up. The office Manager Christie would not assist, wouldn't provide an email or leave him a message. She stated whatever was said in the appointment yesterday was final.
All I needed was to communicate with the Dr. She proceeded to yell and tell me to leave the office and called the police. I stayed outside to wait because I didn't want my son witness his mother be bullied with the threat of police. The police did show and gave me really good advice on reporting the manager. Was very understanding and sympathetic to my cause. So sad that this happened, would never recommend this office to people of color.
