I recently visited Forefront Dermatology in Oak Creek, WI, and had a truly wonderful experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome and cared for. Everyone was professional, attentive, and kind—but the person who made the biggest difference was APNP Elena Giese. Elena was incredibly knowledgeable and compassionate. She took the time to really listen to my concerns, especially around hair loss and facial care, and offered clear, personalized recommendations. She helped me understand what was happening and guided me in choosing the right vitamins and skincare routine tailored to my needs. What stood out most was how empowering the visit felt. Elena didn’t just treat symptoms—she gave me the tools and confidence to take control of my wellness journey. It’s rare to find someone who combines clinical expertise with such genuine empathy. I left feeling supported, informed, and hopeful. I highly recommend Forefront Dermatology in Oak Creek—and especially Elena Giese—to anyone looking for thoughtful, professional dermatological care.

I had a good experience. I had a concern, was taken seriously, given detailed information about what it was and what my options were. I wasn’t pressured, but when I opted for removal I was given options that helped manage my experience and expenses given my insurance situation. Overall, I felt my care was provided in an efficient, professional, and respectful manner which is really all I need.

I left confused. Last year I was told the spot on my cheek was a "traumatic verbose vein". Today I was told it's a "precanceros spot". Why then did they do laser treatment on the spot to diminish it?
