I like Dr Reeder because she is usually very through. Today she seemed a bit rushed because there were a lot of patients there.

Forefront Dermatology
Two visits in late 2022. Waited 10 min first visit and less than 5 min second time. Quick and efficient initial intake questions and prep by the nurses in the exam room. Waited less than 5 min for Dr Reeder each visit. She conveys a calm cheerful competence. Both simple procedures were executed quickly and efficiently. Absolutely recommend this facility and Dr Reeder. They advised me to keep the sutures dry and to use waterproof bandages for showering. Easier said than done - wish they had applied such a bandage at the exam room.
