What Dr. Kellawan's patients have to say:

First off I would like to say that I came to Dr Kellawan’s office after a terrible experience with 2 other providers who treated me 1, like a number and 2, like an inconvenience. Beyond their lack of customer service, they also told me that they performed services that, once I was in the office, told me they did not see patients for and could not refer me to anyone who did which seemed odd since it is a very common issue. I say all of that to let you know that I was super skeptical and not expecting to have a good experience. BUT I was blown away. The office was clean, they offered early morning appointments that were early enough that I could go before I had to be at work which was a huge relief because I had just started a new job and couldn’t really take any time off. Their receptionists were very welcoming and very approachable. It was a Monday and we all know how cranky Mondays can be and it was 7:15 am and a crazy Monday for them, but they were in good spirits and meeting the challenge with laughter, smiles and teamwork. This set the tone for my visit. My next interaction was with the tech/assistant who took me back to the room and did my pre doctor stuff. She as quiet at first and I thought ‘here we go, here is where it all falls apart,” but nope, she as professional, friendly, and did a great job of going through my history, prepping me and made me feel like I would be cared for. This put me at ease. Them the Doc came in and he had a shadow with him - she was joining the practice and shadowing him. Together they addressed my issues, resolved them right then and there. I was asked questions, felt heard and together we made decisions right there on what was appropriate to resolve the minor problems I had. This was an excellent visit. I felt seen, heard, and together we decided on the appropriate care. I am making the 35 minute trip to see this doctor and will continue because he is worth it and my health and well being are important. Thank you Dr. Kellawan and team - you have a Very happy patient - Sunshine ☀️

This was my first visit to Forefront Dermatology, Dr. Kellawan is very nice and knowledgeable, I wasn’t rushed, he took the time to go over the skin issues I had and even spots that concerned me but ended up normal moles or blemishes. Office was bright and clean along with kind and helpful staff. All of my skin issues were explained and there was a care plan put in place to get relief.

Got a routine full body scan and was blessed to only have one small spot on my cheek which needed to be frozen. Fast in and out and great explanation by Dr. K on what he was as observing.
