Surgical Dermatologists - Falls Church, VA

"Avoid. Brusque, curt, rude, and dismissive. I had my first and last appointment today. It lasted all of 10 minutes. I had acne and hyoerpigmentation concerns. As I explained, he interrupted me midsentence, and snapped, "I wouldn't change what you're using now. If you like it, keep using it. Don't pay money on prescriptions just to spend money." Excuse me? I was asking him for his medical opinion on whether I needed prescriptions in the first place. And I don't need accounting advice, thanks. He whipped out two prescriptions (one for a medication I was already taking), and hurried me out. I asked the front desk whether he was always that brusque, and they said yes. They also said his father was exactly the same way. No, thanks. You're not getting my time and co-pay if you have no time for me. This is health we're talking about. He might be a fine doctor if he never had to interact with patients. But he does. Luckily, I won't be one of them."
