I'm an Allergy Partners connoisseur, as in this will be my fifth location I'm receiving care and…read moretreatment from in Virginia. I'm not bashing my previous doctors, but Dr. Rakes is by far the best Allergy Partners doctor I've seen thus far and this is only my first visit. He was not only pleasant, friendly, and knowledgeable, but within minutes (and asking all the right questions) he made me feel at ease about the future of my treatment. Fall is the worst season for me, and this is a new city, but the best part about this visit was the identification of a skin condition I've had since 2020 and giving it a name, one that left previous doctors unsure. I've been baffled by it and am grateful of the diagnosis and can look forward to taking better care of it now. I am yet to get my shots here, will update further when the time comes. But front office staff were super friendly and helpful.

Do not waste your time. I never even saw the doctor. After waiting for over an hour, the doctor…read morestill hadn't shown up, no nurse came to check on me, and when I asked the receptionist for an update, I was told that there was no estimated time to expect him. After 60 minutes of sitting alone in an office room, I left. I do not recommend this allergist. He obviously doesn't have a good grasp of what it means to operate a business that focuses on the patient. Feels like they're just interested in getting that copay and then not holding up their end of the bargain.

Unprofessional and disorganized. Poor management grossly incompetent billing. I believe the Dr…read more will say whatever he thinks you want to hear to get you signed into their "treatments"

I scheduled a 3:00 pm appointment with Dr. Teran for a suspicious spot. He took a look, & then…read morecompleted a biopsy. Only 48 hours later my results indicated cancer. Another appointment was scheduled to remove this problem. I decided to alert the office staff that I would like to be considered for an open appointment from a cancellation they might receive. I was contacted just a few days after I notified the office of my desire & was able to have an 11 am appointment. Dr Teran & his tech Kiran are bother professional and kind. It took moments to prepare, to numb the spot & then for the cancer to be removed and a few stitches set. I felt no discomfort whatsoever! I am thrilled that the skin cancer this office detected has been removed. My aftercare is very straightforward as I have dissolvable stitches. I enjoyed my brief visit with Dr. Teran and would highly recommend his services. The entire staff at Family Dermatology of Albemarle is friendly and helpful. My thanks to the entire team!

Had an appt at 3:00. Arrived early as requested. Was not seen until 3:35. I said I was upset when…read moreDr finally came in to see me because no one at reception told me you were running late or did I need to reschedule. Nothing. Just left me sitting there waiting and when I asked how much longer they said ," you are the next one" so I waited. Then the Dr said to me that that is what is to be expected with late afternoon appts. That they will be late. So if they know this why don't they give more appt time to morning appts. So basically she said it was my fault for having a job and only being able to get there in the afternoon and I should always expect my appts to be at least 30 minutes late. What a slap in the face. No apology for being late or anything. I will not be going back and if you go just expect for them to not be respectful of you or your time.

Never in my life have I been to such an unorganized and rude office. I would NEVER trust them to…read moregive me allergy shots! They let my venom run out and then charged me for new venom. They were supposed to call me when it arrived. Never heard from them. Made an appointment with the doctor because they refused to let me talk to him by phone. Doctor said the venom was there but it was too late for me to continue the shots without starting over. I decided to stop the shots. I went to the Waynesboro office for many years and then they abruptly moved to the main office in Charlottesville. Totally different experience. The doctor was supposed to get them to take the charge off. Never happened!

Terrible experience. I waited three months for an appointment to get into this specialty allergy…read moreclinic. I was told by the secretary I would need to stop taking certain medications a week prior to my appointment for full allergy testing and they would send me a list of the medications I would need to stop to my home address. The list never arrived. After four calls to the office and no return calls, I stopped all of my meds abruptly out of fear they may interfere with my testing. When I got there the physician listened to my lungs, patted me on my shoulder, said everything is going to be okay, and sent me on my way. No blood tests, no poke tests, no information, no recipes, no nothing. For reference, I have newly diagnosed alpha gal syndrome, a tick borne illness that makes me anaphylactic-ly allergic to beef, pork, lamb, dairy, butter, carrageenan, gelatin (including medication gel tabs), and natural flavors. I now have to carry around an epi pen that the urgent care provider who diagnosed me prescribed. I also have had abrupt cardiac symptoms with the new diagnosis...hypertension and tachycardia for which I now need to take cardiac medications. Keep in mind my heart rate and blood pressure were fine up until this diagnosis and I am a heathy woman in her 30's with no medical history. My sustained tachycardia put me in the emergency room and almost admitted me to the hospital because it would not go below 110 beats per minute at rest. Dr. Dillon told me it was just stress. She then said to continue avoiding what I was avoiding and she would see me in nine months. Her nurse literally told me to Google my diagnosis for more information, even though there is not a lot of information out there on it. No recipes, no printed info, nothing. I should have wasted my money on a massage. At least I wouldn't have waited three months for absolutely nothing and felt better about it afterwards. Their online paperwork is also a debacle. It takes forever and it is filled with ads and research pitches. This sounds like a small office was taken over by a large money making business venture and the patient is not the center of the practice's efforts. I am going to save the money and ask my primary care physician to retest me periodically. There was literally no reason why the urgent care should have referred me to this place. Save your money and your time.

It's really nice to have a office that has just about everything in it. My primary is Dr. Varney…read moreand she is absolutely amazing and so welcoming when you go in. They also have a imagining center inside, pharmacy, urologist, dermatologist, obgyn, orthopedic etc!!! This place is so easy to get to and offers plenty of parking! I will say the dermatologist I saw on 10/24/2018 for a spot on my face that was concerning had no bed side manner what so ever. After telling me it's just a scar with scar tissue but really not offering any reasoning for it he proceeded to leave the room and without any eye contact asked me while walking out if there were any "moles on my back I would liked checked also"....I felt like I was just a waste of time in his day.
