Planning Your Visit
Our patients come first and this attention can sometimes cause delays in our schedule depending on emergencies or unavoidable situations. We ask you to please be understanding and recognize that this same attention and courtesy will be extended to you as our patient.
Your Appointment
In general the physician, NP, PA discusses about 2-3 issues such as skin cancers and maybe acne during an appointment depending on the amount of detail and the complexity of the problem. You will want to discuss your most pressing problems and issues first.
We do our best to answer patient questions in detail at each appointment. Sometimes certain skin issues are more complicated and need additional time to diagnose, treat, and explain. To be able to see everyone that needs help, the appointments are a set amount of time which insures that each patient will receive service.
We realize that your time is as valuable as the next individual, and we want to do our best to see you at your appointment time and address your most troublesome skin issues thoroughly. To adequately discuss other problems we may need to schedule another appointment. If you want to make another appointment to discuss more issues, please tell the exit receptionist at the end of your visit.
