Patient comments
After my appointment I realized that Dr. S did not seem to be looking over my records and did not mention that I am now taking Prednisone, which may not affect my skin condition. She did not ask me if I've been using the meds she prescribed at my last visit (I haven't). I thought she could have looked over my skin and scalp more thoroughly, but perhaps I should have asked her to.
Great service
Good experience
Magnificent physician
It was wonderful
