Not one to leave negative reviews, however I am extremely frustrated with the care I received at this office. I had a nail infection, was seen 2 times, followed by a misdiagnosis. I followed all direction given by Dr. Sundless and her PA (to simply keep my hand dry) and after 3 months my finger is much worse and in pain. After calling the office and asking to speak directly to her, I was told she is too busy and did not receive a call back. It took me seeking a second opinion I was given a quick and clear diagnosis with medication to follow. Sharing in hopes this saves someone from experiencing the frustration and misdiagnosis I’ve had here.

Dr. Sundlass and the Forefront office is clean, efficient and professional. Wait time was short and paperwork minimal. I appreciate her straight forward approach to skincare as well. If other than prescription, she recommends reputable, affordable products easily obtained at a local pharmacy.

Dr.Sundlass is very thorough. Although I don't like getting cut on my skin for basil cell I know she is doing the right thing. She always explains very well why it's needed. That's why I keep coming back.

Dr. Sundlass gave very basic answers to my questions. Additionally, I found her to be condescending and felt a bit humiliated in front of her PA and medical assistant. She proceeded to assume that I am not conscious of what I eat and lectured me about macronutrients even though I am well-versed in my fitness journey and healthy diet. Overall they told me everything that I already know and even though they looked at my skin, they still were not able to give concrete explanations as to why only one side of my face is getting breakouts. They were dismissive and rushed the appointment. They just prescribed me tons of topicals that are not even covered by my insurance and did not explain possible side effects (is there a possibility for antibiotic resistance?) of one of the topicals (clindamycin) they prescribed. I will not recommend her to anyone. There are better dermatologists out there.
