I find that developing and maintaining a trusting and lasting doctor-patient relationship is of the utmost importance, because a strong doctor-patient relationship can help instill confidence and empower patients to have an active role in the treatment of their skin conditions.

Believe the 1 star reviews in here. My 1st red flag was the receptionist complaining excessively about a song on the radio. The office vibe is definitely off. Then dr. Buntumasi. He seemed to not want to be bothered with me. Like he already had what he was going to say before he even entered the room. I felt like I was being chastised by him. He took a few seconds to hear why I was there. I couldn't even get it all out before he started rambling on and on. I felt like he was bothered by me being there. No compassion. A few of his comments I felt were rude and judgemental. I have no idea how this place could have as high of a rating as they do unless they are false.
