    2 weeks later

    Lisa was my technician the first few times I got the laser hair removal. Went perfectly each time (obviously slightly painful, but understandably). I really liked her and was seeing progress. On what became my last visit there, I had a new technician (I think her last name is Greene?). It was EXTREMELY painful and I kept her updated throughout. She seemed shocked that it hurt and was lowering the levels little by little but it was NOT helping. I was not on any special medications or anything out of the ordinary. She was also not shocked to see my skin reaction... told me to put some aloe, don't take hot shower, refrain from intense exercise, nothing out of the usual. Now, I have done laser hair removal treatments (legs, armpits, upper lip) many different times at different places. I know how it works. I have NEVER experienced such pain and reaction. Please see photos for post treatment and the scars it has left. I have contacted them a few weeks after with pictures of the scars and talked on the phone to the technician who treated me, but she only said that sometimes we have different reactions and maybe my body was just more sensitive that day. I've had great previous experiences there, so the review is based on that one treatment. I think it's understandable because I still have a scar a year and 5 months later.

    Amazing Visit!! Will post pictures soon…read more First off Sidney at the front desk was the most well informed recieptionst ive encounterd! It was my first time coming in, and i thought i couldnt be seen but when i called in Sidney got me scheduled for the same day "AMAZING SERVICE"! She reassured me of how everything would go and even went over some of the options the Dr. might have for me! I had a dent in my cheek from an acne scar that had started to get worse due to me personally doing everything possible to make it worse thinking im a dermatologist, but i explained that to her when i called in and she scheduled me right away! The visit went just as well! Gabby is also AMAZING and well informed and made me feel comfortable about the procedure before the Dr. came in. She is very friendly and made the visit much easier! Dr. Hickman is beyond professional and efficient! When i tell you i had zero pain during this procedure i am not lying.. i would not even give it a 1 on the pain scale. ( the procedure i had done was filler to help fill the scar and lift the skin and overtime potentially help collagen start building back in the area) I am no longer ugly and back to normal. I recommend them for sure!! Thank you guys

    This was genuinely one of the worst medical experiences my mother and I have ever had…read more From the moment we walked in, the entire office felt cold, dismissive, and incredibly rude. The receptionist and assistant were both abrasive and unwelcoming, but the dermatologist herself was by far the worst part of the experience. (Dr. Martha Hickmann) During the exam, she SCRATCHED my mother's irritated skin with her bare fingernails while examining the area. Not only was this incredibly uncomfortable, but it also felt completely unsanitary and unprofessional. There was no warning, no gentleness, and no respect for basic bedside manner. Her overall attitude throughout the appointment was shockingly condescending. Every question we asked was met with snarky, dismissive responses as if we were stupid for asking normal medical questions. When my mother asked about potential scarring from a procedure, the doctor sarcastically replied, "Every surgical procedure causes a scar," in a tone that was clearly meant to belittle rather than educate. Instead of offering reassurance or a thoughtful explanation, she acted irritated that she even had to answer. The entire appointment felt rushed and careless. Rather than explaining anything clearly or showing confidence and expertise, she seemed to just throw random possibilities around without much insight or certainty. It genuinely felt like guessing rather than informed medical care. What made the experience even worse was how physically invasive and disrespectful she was. She repeatedly put her hands on people without asking, handled irritated skin aggressively, and showed absolutely no awareness of patient comfort whatsoever. There is a massive difference between being direct and being rude, and this office crossed that line repeatedly. We left feeling uncomfortable, dismissed, and honestly upset by how unnecessarily demeaning the entire interaction was. I would absolutely never recommend this dermatologist or this office to anyone looking for compassionate, professional, or respectful care. The entire experience was awful from start to finish.
