Golden State Dermatology is a place that is only interested in making money.
We went twice for a wart and even when we were in doctor’s care my daughter got ano to it wart.

All they did was prescribe over the counter and did not even clean the wart. No scrapping was done.
We visited twice the same location and doctor said do over the counter sacilic acid patch .

No guidance when it will be become better and precautions and no medication.

This is just not a good service and we had to go a third doctor a podiatrist. Just waste of time and money
