This my first time seeing Dr.Quartey. She was amazing. She listened to me and took her time giving me a skin check. Her assistant was amazing. I have some anxiety and a bit of a germaphob and the assistant was wonderful about it. She did a great job. From the time you step into the door everyone was very friendly.

Dr. Quartey is wonderful. She was extremely thorough and made me feel very comfortable. She listened to all of my concerns and was especially understanding when I discussed a situation with a previous physician. I truly appreciated her compassion.

I had an area of concern on my arm and needed to find a dermatologist. I was searching the internet for one here in Frederick. I was very happy that I was able to get appointment for the next day!! I waited a while to be called back for my appointment but both the Medical Assistant Skye and Dr. Quartey both apologized several times and explained it was due to a couple emergencies. I appreciated them letting me know that because if I had an emergency I would want them to spend the time with me! I would highly recommend Dr Quartey - she put me at ease right away. She explained in detail what I had and the treatment for it. She is very friendly and personable. I booked an appointment to go back for a full body scan next month.

Love their office vibe

Google • Forefront Dermatology

This was a new doctor in the practice for me… She was upbeat, friendly, cheerful, and willing to do whatever you needed her to do to make you feel comfortable as a patient with any Further assistance in the examining room or further tests. Was accommodating and helpful and answered all my questions.

Dr Quartey is knowledgeable and has the ability to translate that information. I was only in for a routine screening. It did feel rushed and often rehearsed. Additionally, the paper drapes was not adequate and tore easily. Otherwise, top notch.
