Western Dermatology Consultants on Montgomery Technician: E…read moreAragon Went there for a "full body" skin check. The key words here are full body. There are places on my body that I am not able to see, and even if I could see, I am not capable of discerning the health of the skin. This is why I went to a dermatologist. Come to find out that they assume you do not want a full body check and will only check your entire skin surface if you have a complaint. This is foolish. I the past I have had several pre-cancerous lesions and some that were cancerous removed from places I can easily see, but that I did not recognize as harmful or have any negative sensation such as redness, itching or pain. They say they only check parts of you that are exposed to the sun. Does skin cancer only effect those areas? No. This falls within the realm of "failure to diagnose" which can be a big problem for a provider. They should always perform a full body check unless you refuse to do so. While there, I had several spots frozen and two shaved off. Now three weeks later the spots that were frozen have returned. The technician did not freeze the area long enough to kill the skin cells. I have the impression that they are trying, but they have some areas that need improvement. The service was abbreviated and superficial. It feels like this place has shifted from being a dermatology office to a beauty spa. I guess you go to where the money is?

I went to Western Dermatology for a shave biopsy of a simple, benign skin mole done by the PA. It…read morewas a terrible experience from start to finish. The numbing injection was extremely painful. The MA said it would just be a little pinch, but it wasn't -- and I always tolerate pain pretty well. Less than a week after the biopsy, the site progressively became completely infected and very painful. I went to urgent care on a Sunday where I was told I had cellulitis that could progress to sepsis. They gave me 4 prescriptions. I returned to Western Dermatology on Monday for a follow-up. The PA brought a student in to examine me and took the infection very lightly. Instead of acknowledging how serious it was, she prescribed even more medication on top of all the cost I had already incurred. When I mentioned that I was concerned about all of the new medication coats (as buying it directly from Western Dermatology significantly higher than buying it from a pharmacy) -- she and the student started laughing. They also tried to charge me another $80 co-pay for that follow-up visit, less than 7 days after the procedure. I explained at check-in and again at check-out that this type of unbundling was illegal. The CPT procedure code includes a seven day follow which should not have any additional charge. The front desk, check out desk, and the manager insisted they charge $80 at every visit. I was finally able to help them understand, proper billing codes, and charges. More than three weeks later, the infection still has not resolved. I will never go back.

About nine months ago, I was playing hockey when an opponent's skate cut across my neck. I went to the ER, and unfortunately, the repair work they did was less than satisfactory. Concerned about the outcome, I called High Desert Dermatology, and despite their busy schedule, they got me in right away. Dr. Carey took one look at the injury and immediately went to work correcting the damage that had been done. His skill, professionalism, and attention to detail were remarkable. Today, more than nine months later, you can barely notice the scar. The results exceeded my expectations. The entire staff was compassionate, professional, and made a stressful situation much easier to handle. I am incredibly grateful for the care I received and would highly recommend Dr. Carey and High Desert Dermatology to anyone needing exceptional medical care. Thank you, Doc and staff! -- Enzo
