Doctor Su maintains a great Retinal practice here in the valley called Valley VitreoRetinal…read moreConsultants. The Doctor has a professional staff, some of the newest top of the line medical diagnostic equipment, comfortable examination suites, operating room, and reception / waiting areas. He and his staff provided an open and intuitive examination experience and fully made accommodation to work with my primary doctor in New England. He was happy to help me transfer all of his testing results and diagnosis quickly and professionally. His leadership of this team can be seen through their empathetic manner and care. If you need a check up contract Dr. Su for a top notch caring experience.

I had not been to a dermatologist in 15 years, so I was overdue for a check-up, and already knew…read morethere were some possible skin cancers. After a thorough inspection and 9 biopsies, they found 6 skin cancers, thankfully, all were the more common and least dangerous - still, they needed treatment, which included a topical cream for half, and surgery for the rest. Oasis Dermatology Group has multiple locations. This one is in Weslaco on Oklahoma Ave, a half a block south of Business 83, by the KFC. When you arrive, check in, and provide insurance and payment information, and they will call you when it is your turn. They did well coordinating with my insurance. There are several doctors here, and throughout my process, I seldom saw the same doctor twice. Since everything is documented in the patient file, either one can quickly get up-to-date with your case. Most non-surgical treatment is done here, such as exams, shave biopsies, consultations, etc. As part of the documentation process, they do take before and after pictures of any lesions. With all the work I had done I had so many photo shoots, I felt like a model and wanted the extra lights and a wind machine... (a little humor helps!) Seriously, they were all very professional. I appreciated the options offered for my treatment of the skin cancers. Some were good candidates for use of a topical cream which, not only is less expensive, but leaves no scarring. The cream doesn't work with everyone, and it only worked on half the lesions we tried it on, but it did eliminate the need for surgery on three. If you need surgery, you most likely will be sent to their McAllen surgical center on Buddy Owens Blvd. where they get you in and out quickly, unless you need Mohs surgery which is very specialized and done by Dr. Rick Lin. Mohs surgery removes one microscopic layer at a time to ensure they only remove what has to be removed, and leave minimal scarring. This is essential for people with lesions on their face or sensitive areas. Since it is so time-consuming, requires specialized training and equipment, it is also quite expensive. I am grateful that option is available in the RGV, but equally grateful I did not need it. I'd like to give a shout out to the doctors who did my three surgeries, all of which were successful (the cancer completely removed): Drs. González, Sandrock, and Burningham. They ensured I was informed, as comfortable as possible, and did their work well. Doctors González and Sandrock were assigned to the two surgeries on my back. I was concerned about me stressing the stitches when I had to bend over to put on socks and shoes, etc., but their stitches held very nicely. They did also find several additional spots on my arms that could have been precancerous and treated them with liquid nitrogen (freezing). This treatment is relatively inexpensive and quick. The treated spot usually blisters, then heals. I cannot even tell now where they did it, and the spots are gone. My only frustration had nothing to do with them, but with my insurance company which only allows 5 biopsies at a time. Honestly, I wonder how many doctors would reconsider their career choice had they known how many hours they'd had to invest fighting with insurance companies to ensure needed care for their patients? (Can I get an "amen"?) I highly recommend Oasis Dermatology Group. I know people like me (fair and ginger) are more prone to sun damage and skin cancers, so I was a little surprised at how many non-caucasion patients they have. In the RGV, with the fierce sun we have, everyone needs to get a check-up from time to time. This is the place. Don't wait as long as I did.

The Dr that attended to my husband inaccurately document a seizure event my husband had during a…read morebiopsy procedure at the weslaco clinic. Sadly I only found out over a year later that she didnt input everything that happened that day to my husband. All that she put was that he was confused. She left out how he fell back, his hands came up to his chest, his body began to jolt and he stopped breathing. His skin turning pale. Episode lasted almost 3 minutes before he regained conciousness and was confused. She called the ambulance but husband denied it since the episode had already passed. Sadly she does not want to fix her medical notes for that day. Standing by what she said was what happened. She cant own up to being caught documenting false notes.

Dr Kolia has been my optician for 20 yrs. I've left the valley and when I moved back I made sure…read morethat I followed up with her. I enjoy that Dr. Kolia does a great job in developing rapport with her patients, she has a great memory and likes to see how I'm doing. I love her selection of frames, always very trendy and fashionable. Dr Kolia does an excellent job in finding the frames that's the perfect fit for you. B/c of my dry eyes I tend to favor glasses over contact lenses and I love how they look on me and more the compliments that I receive. I also have astigmatism and I've been pleased with the glasses and daily wear contact lens prescription that she has prescribed. Her staff members are super polite and responsive. I haven't had any issues and I really like the precautions that Dr. Kolia and her staff are taking for COVID.

Also my niece tried making an appointment with them and also got no response. I guess they are too busy and make enough money to call back their clients (yes, I have been going here for 2 years, and have had 2 sets of glasses already) now they don't want to call back or make appointments.
