I had what I thought was a wound that wouldn’t heal since June. I went to several doctors and to wound care and it wouldn’t heal. They suggested a dermatologist. He looked at it and prescribed a creme and said it would be gone in two weeks. 8 days later it’s gone.

Terrific experience with Dr. Dreifke and his nurse Sydnie today for surgical removal of a carcinoma on my back. Thorough explanation of the procedure and consideration of my comfort during procedure. Clear & concise explanation of care to follow at home and direct responses to my questions. All of this done in a manner that clearly demonstrated for my wellbeing as their patient. They’re the best!
