What Dr. Pietras's patients have to say:

Google Reviews • Forefront

Very satisfied with Dr Pietras!!

Google Reviews • Forefront

I’d been to two other dermatologists to try and figure out why, at 67 years old, my face was so broken out. They prescribed different medications, both oral and topical, to no avail. It had gotten so bad I didn’t want to go anywhere without a face mask. Decided to try Dr. Pietras based on his reviews. He immediately told me I had Rosacea; this was the first time I’d heard that. He gave me oral and topical medication (different than the others) and within a few days, there was a huge improvement! I was at my wits end, and am so grateful to Dr. Pietras for figuring this out for me.
