Dr. Kadyk is always so personable and takes her time listening to my daughters concerns. She takes their opinions into consideration when discussing their treatment options. Even Dr. Kadyk’s nurses and super friendly. We are so happy to have a dermatologist that doesn’t just push a particular treatment and has an open discussion with even the teen patients.

Dr. Kadyk needed to biopsy a spot on my nose and one on the back of my hand. She and her nurse did an excellent job, and were concerned about my comfort. I trust Dr. Kadyk very much, and am very comfortable recommending her!

My 1st appointment with Dr. Kady and it was a very relaxing and educational visit. I had a biopsy done on one spot and a freeze on the other spot that was a concern of mine. I feel very confident with my outcome and I will definitely go back to her. She was very nice and is a down to earth doctor. I would recommend her and her entire office. Her assistant was just as friendly and professional as her. So yes, this is a keeper when it comes to a doctor for me and my health.! For a 1st visit I would say this is exceptional. Thanks Kayla Ray for your referral and your help. You are an awesome young lady with a very bright future . You are such a good hearted, helpful and calm young lady. Thanks again to Dr. Kadyk and her entire office team.
