    I wish I would've seen these reviews before I went. I have pretty bad cystic acne and wanted to get into a regular treatment. My wedding was 6 months in the future, but I was clear I did not want just an easy fix for the wedding, I wanted a sustainable treatment to clear my face. He entered the room, never even looked at my face and skin problems (acne people will know the different types of acne require COMPLETELY different treatments). He threw me a sheet with a bunch of treatments and told me to "pick one". I said I am not a doctor and therefore have no idea which would be more suitable for my type of skin. I haven't had a chance to read up on any of these. He said it's up to me so I should choose. After this he started being incredibly condescending and dismissive. I asked if the treatments would have a side effect that could affect pregnancy since we wanted to start trying after the wedding. He proceeded to tell me how I "could be married without being pregnant" like I'm some sort of idiot. I'm a 30 year old woman with a B.S. and an MBA degree.
    I don't know why I stayed, probably because it had been so hard to get an appointment anywhere. But I asked him to check me for malignant moles, given that my family always has to take moles off at the doctor because they can turn into skin cancer. All of my family has this problem, and I'd never in my life checked so I asked him if he could check. He gave me a once over look and said i didn't have anything. I asked him to check a couple that were literally black and he hadn't even seen them and was annoyed and asking me why I keep asking this, if I didn't have this issue before.

    I understand why some people would leave crying, I really do. This was demeaning and horrible. He shouldn't be able to treat anyone else. Ever. Oh also the stuff he recommended was $300 on top of the visit which was $600 after insurance. He was in my network.

    Needless to say, my acne didn't clear up with this random treatment I chose myself at his office. Next time I will Web MD it. It will probably get better results.
