It was my first time at the practice and the wait was awfully long. I arrived 20 minutes before my appointment time to fill out new patient paperwork. I sat from 10:40 to 11:30 before I was even taken back. During that time another patient stormed out into the waiting around and angrily said to us "good luck! She had me waiting an hour!" After being taken back at 11:30, I waited in the examination room until 12:20. Around 12:05, the nurse practitioner popped her head in and said, "are you all right? Ill be back in 2 minutes." I thought, whats another two minutes. Ive already been waiting an hour. But she took 15 more minutes to come in. She came in and did her consultation, at which point it dawned on me that I wasnt going to be seeing either doctor. When I asked about it, the nurse practitioner said to me "no but I can have her come in and say hi if you like." I also work in health care and was very disappointed that this wasnt made very clear at the time the appointment was made or when I arrived and checked in. Its nothing against the nurse practitioner, who seemed knowledgable in this field and very professional, but when you call a dermatology office and make an appointment to see a dermatologist, its disappointing that they dont have time for you. I finally left after checking out at 1:00 pm. Overall I did not like my experience here, thought the wait was outrageous, and will be seeking out a new dermatologist to see in the future.

This is a new practice that opened in May 2009, in the Foxhall Square building There are two physicians and one nurse practioner in this group, who have worked with one another for several years. Unique to this practice is the emphasis on medical dermatology as well as cosmetic dermatology and the genuine belief that this kind of holistic approach to patient care is essential for health promotion and wellness. One of the few remaining practices in the District of Columbia that can provide on site dermatopathology by an expert. This is a practice that the patient will know that they can depend on a medical team that will deliver optimum health care services related to Dermatology with state of the art technology, and can successfully deliver excellence in medical and cosmetic concerns. Well worth the visit.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. I came after two of my coworkers recommended this place. The practice is small but everyone is considerate here. Only thing is that its difficult to get an appointment sometimes. Ive had to wait a month before.
