Dr. Garrett and Sydney took good care of me. Dr. Garrett answered all my questions, did a thorough screening and a quick and painless cosmetic procedure. Very happy to have my skin cancer screening done before summer sun exposure.

Dr. Garrett was our second opinion but if we would have seen her first, there would have been no need for a second! She was a relief, a breath of fresh air and she changed my daughter’s life in one visit. She was patient, compassionate and very knowledgeable. Overall, the experience was wonderful and the whole office deserves 10 stars! We will never go anywhere else!
