I had suspicious areas. I have a history of squamous and basal cell. Dr Garrett got me in 3 days later and resolved my situation. I’m 74 been seeing dermatologists since 1965. Dr Garrett is hands down the best. I trust her to look out for me. I’m fortunate to be her patient
I am in year 10 with Dr Garrett
Again fortunately she’s my Dermatologist

Dr. Garrett was amazing and made me feel so comfortable while getting a body check for skin cancer. I’ve had basil cell carcinoma diagnosed and the MOHS surgery at this location 1.5 years ago and they are all amazing. Dr. Wilkes performed the MOHS and I highly recommend her! The office help, physician’s assistant and Dr. Garrett made this experience so much better, and I was very nervous and somewhat afraid of what she might find. I had some suspicious spots and she quickly diagnosed them and gave me a good report. I am so happy to have a derm that I feel so completely confident in!!!

From front desk to Dr visit to exit very professional. Even though I needed some sun spots taken care of Dr Garrett is very quick and efficient. I’d much rather have an appointment with Dr Garrett as my dentist.

I arrived to find that the scheduling system I used hadn’t scheduled an appointment. I had called on a day there were were phone problems. The wonderful front desk staff found me an appointment later in the afternoon. A wonderful staff member took my history and answered paperwork questions in a friendly professional way. The physician who had worked me in came in, communicated clearly, Knew the ins and outs of my insurance, And handled my situation in five minutes. I was totally satisfied, accomplished my goal. I left happy! I’d score this visit technologies 0/human beings 5.
