"I came in with a mole on my shoulder that had changed shape. Every other provider I called had a 6-week wait. DermTrust saw me in 48 hours. Dr. Reyes examined it under dermoscopy, explained exactly what she was seeing in plain language, and had biopsy results back to me in 3 days. Benign — but I finally had an answer instead of a waiting room."

"I've had cystic acne since I was 16. I'm 29 now and had basically given up. My previous derm prescribed the same thing for 4 years. Dr. Patel spent 40 minutes with me on the first visit — actually asked about my sleep, stress, diet. Left with a completely different protocol. Three months in, first clear skin of my adult life."

"I was nervous about cosmetic procedures — I didn't want to look done. Dr. Nguyen spent the first appointment just educating me. No pressure to book anything. She showed me before/after photos from real patients with my skin tone, explained the gradual approach, and let me decide. That honesty sold me more than any promotion could."

"My rosacea was dismissed as "sensitive skin" for years. Dr. Reyes diagnosed it in the first 10 minutes, identified my specific triggers from a detailed intake form I filled out before the appointment, and had me on a targeted protocol within a week. The 7-day follow-up call from the nurse actually happened — I nearly fell out of my chair."

"As a Black woman, I've had providers minimize my hyperpigmentation and scarring as "cosmetic." Dr. Patel treated it as the medical concern it is. She has extensive experience with melanin-rich skin and it shows in every recommendation. I wish I'd found this practice years ago."

"Came in for a full-body skin check — first one I'd ever had at 51. The exam was thorough, they photographed everything for baseline comparison, and flagged two spots for monitoring. The wait was slightly longer than expected but the care was worth it. Will be back every year."

From Booking to Follow-Up

Every step, visible. Nothing hidden.

Patients who understand the process report less anxiety and better outcomes. Here's exactly what happens.

01Booking

You book — online or by phone

New patient forms are sent via secure portal 48 hours before your visit. We review your concern, medication list, and previous treatment history before you walk in the door. Your time is not spent on paperwork in the waiting room.

Avg. booking response: < 4 hours

02Examination

Board-certified examination

A physician — never a PA or NP on first visit without your consent — examines your concern using dermoscopy where indicated. If a mole is involved, every lesion is photographed and logged in your permanent record for longitudinal comparison.

Average exam time: 35 minutes

03Diagnosis

Your diagnosis, in plain language

We don't hand you a printout and leave. The physician walks you through what they found, what it means, what it isn't, and what happens next. Questions are expected. Patients who ask more questions get better outcomes — we've built our intake process around that fact.

04Treatment

Treatment begins — same visit when possible

If your treatment plan includes an in-office procedure — biopsy, excision, injection, laser — we perform it today if clinically appropriate. No second appointment for what can be done now. If labs are needed, our pathology partner returns results in 3.2 days on average.

Lab turnaround: 3.2 days avg.

05Follow-Up

Follow-up that actually happens

Within 7 days of your visit, a clinical team member calls or messages to check in — not a survey, a real conversation. If results are pending, we update you the moment they arrive. 94% of our patients receive this follow-up contact. The 6% are patients who explicitly opt out.

Questions to bring to your first derm visit

Patients who arrive with specific questions get more out of their appointments. This checklist was built from 847 patient conversations — the questions that changed diagnoses, surfaced better options, and started real treatment.

Is this mole something I should watch, or remove now?

What's the difference between this treatment and the one I read about online?

How long before I see results — and what does "no improvement" look like?

Do I need a patch test before this prescription?

What should I avoid for 48 hours after this procedure?
