Todd Rickett, MD, FAAD

Board-Certified Dermatologist
Schedule an appointment
After attending the University of Louisville for undergraduate education, Dr. Todd Rickett realized Louisville is the place to call home. As a board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Rickett takes great pride in seeing patients, from infants with eczema to adults with skin cancer, and helping them to overcome their medical problems. He believes the most important role as a doctor is connecting with the patients. By approaching every patient as an individual, with their own unique personality and concern, Dr. Rickett is better able to understand their symptoms, how it affects their lives and work with the patients to develop a treatment plan that fits their lifestyles and circumstances.

Specializing in complex medical dermatology, skin cancer detection and treatment, and patch testing, Dr. Rickett is a strong advocate that cosmetic or medical skin problems do not have to be problems you live with - address your concerns with a dermatologist to see if your condition can be treated before they have a negative impact on your health and life.

Google Reviews • Forefront

My only complaint was the wait time they set up the appointment and had me wait an 1.5 hours before calling me back. I had all my paperwork done online before and was checked in just before my appointment time. This was my first experience with them. I saw other patients come and go while I waited. This was frustrating. However, I was quite pleased with the service I got. Once they saw me.

Very thorough.

Google Reviews • Forefront

Dr. Rickett did a very thorough job in checking me over and he gave me a very satisfactory explanation regarding the medications that are prescribed for treatment of my skin cancers. He also ordered a biopsy of a small squamous cell carcinoma and scheduled me for my next appointment 4 months from now. He is a very friendly doctor and he really shows that he understands and cares for his patients needs and I always look forward to my next appointment with him. In addition, I want to mention that his nurse, Olivia, does an excellent job in obtaining medical background information for the appointment ahead of when Dr. Rickett begins his examination and she did much to make me realize that forefront dermatology has staff who really do care for their patients including making sure that they understand the need for specific treatments administered during the appointment. I look forward to working with Dr. Rickett and Olivia on my next visit to Forefront Dermatology!!
