Absolutely do not recommend this practice. I scheduled a wellness check-up, as I am 60 and had not been to the doctor in many years. The appointment was booked as a wellness visit -- at no point before or during the visit was I told that I needed to "re-verify" that it was being billed as such. The only way I became aware that the visit was not billed as a wellness check -- and that I was responsible for an unexpected balance -- was when I received a bill several months later. I was never informed at the appointment that this would occur or that the billing would be handled differently than what was scheduled. In my opinion, this is fraudulent billing -- patients should never be misled about the nature of a visit or the financial consequences, and should not learn of unexpected charges months later with no opportunity to correct or question it. I will be reporting this practice to the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners and the Nevada Division of Insurance. read more

Dr was rude. I was humiliated, chastised and forced to pay extra cash for wart and tag removal after an $800+ bill for a review of moles.

I am 75 years old and Doctor Todd Helfman is the creepiest dermatologist I have ever been to in my life!!! I recently moved to Minden, Nevada and wanted some simple Keratoses in my hairline and on my face treated with cryosurgery. I was given a paper gown that I left open in the back since my only issues were on my face and on the top of my head. Dr. Helfman thought I should turn the gown around so it was open in the front and when I said I didn't think it was necessary he took the grown and forcibly ripped it open! He had a nurse in the far corner of the room that did and said nothing. I think Dr. Helfman was surprised when he realized I still had my bra on. He then abruptly said I was fine and told his nurse to make an appointment for me to come back in a year. I quickly cancelled the appointment. This nut case is the strangest, weirdest and spookiest dermatologist I have ever been to in my life and I would never recommend him to anyone. read more

Dr. Jule is a specialist in skin cancers and diagnosed and biopsied two skin cancers, one on my forehead and one on my neck. He also froze off several small cancers on my hands and arm. He is professional, yet friendly, as is his assistant. They both made me feel comfortable, giving me information about what to expect during the procedures and taking all the time I needed for them to answer my questions. He told me to let him know if I became uncomfortable or felt any pain during the procedure, which I did not, and also asked during the procedure if I was comfortable. Since I obviously felt comfortable with conversation, he and his assistant chatted with me and each other during the surgery, making the time go faster. My procedures were done last Monday and yesterday. Dr. Jule is very good at what he does. The stitches on my forehead were removed yesterday and it looks like I will have very minimal scarring. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. read more
