  I have been a patient here for at over 10 years. Dr. Young is the best! Compassionate and caring. But if I ever need to call to check the status of my prescription refill, it can take 2 weeks or more. I can't get a person to pick up the phone nor can I get someone to return my call...so frustrating.

  Had a virtual meeting about my SKIN. Doctor was rude and seemed rushed. Gave me prescriptions that I didn't use because my skin wasn't even assessed in person. Would not recommend.

  Love this place! They have taught me so much about my skin and how to take care of melanated skin. I've been going here since I was 17 and I am 22 now.

  I waited almost 2 months to meet with noted Dr Callender I anticipated this visit. HOWEVER, I was told my appt would be virtual. I was very confused since i have issues with my skin. I waited 1 hour to speak with the Dr (again virtually) was rushed through my appt did not get any definite answers. My appt lasted 7 minutes and was told her office would follow up and I never heard from her again it's been a month.
