We do, and that is the way we have been caring for our patients since we opened our doors. Our first priority when treating you is to take the time to learn about you and your skin health, from your perspective. Then our board-certified dermatologist steps in and evaluates and performs tests as necessary to begin the proper course of treatment as soon as possible.
