Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Love Dr. Calhoun! She is thorough and truly listens to me. I trust her decisions on my health.

Dr. Calhoun is fantastic! She is extremely professional without being stuffy. She takes the time to listen to all your concerns and questions and reviews everything with you. She explained fully all my options and let me decide what would be the best approach for my situation. Every office visit has been pleasant with minimal waiting. I would highly recommend her for your dermatology needs.

i really had bery bad experience in this clinic and with the doctor. after spending almost an hour waiting for doctor ( even after taking the apoointment) she showed up late. After I explanied her what problems I have with my skulp, she didn’t even bothered about to examine my hairs and skulp. she simply asked me some questions and based on that she recommended few medicine and did not explained anything about the problem or its cause.

Wanted to have a place looked at. Was in on out so fast was almost like I wasn't there. I was not happy with the amount on time given me. A good dermatologist would give you a total look over I would think. Guess it's all about getting that insurance money. Had always been satisfied with previous doctors there.

Dr. Calhoun is a highly skilled and compassionate dermatologist. She administered a painless and precise laser procedure on my hands and my lower arms. Additionally, Dr. Calhoun's staff were most friendly and courteous. I strongly recommend Dr. Calhoun as an exceptional dermatologist.

Dr. Calhoun is very professional and straight to the point. She also has a since of humer that will help with what you are going through or what needs to be done to correct your condition. I really like the idea she is of my age and understands years ago we knew nothing of protecting your skin in the 50's and 60's, or our parents never told us. I would highly recommend Dr. Calhoun to all my friends and family. Her staff is amazing and makes you very comfortable.

Do Not Go To This Practice!!! Dr. Calhoun ruined my face by using too strong of an acid to treat a dark spot. She didn't ask any questions about my skin type or if I burn easily. To top it off, she dripped the acid down my face because she didn't use the proper procedures to keep that from happening. So now I have a large discoloration spot and a line of discoloration down my face. Three and a half years later it looks worse than ever because that skin will no longer tan. After trying to contact

I was treated for severe acne and her recommendations were right on and I no longer have an acne problem. She seems to be a caring individual and she and her children experienced some of the same things I was going thru with acne problems.

Typical dermatologist. Takes very little time with patients. Cuts them off mid-sentence. Worst of all, didn't notice a mole that ultimately had to be excised, until after her scan, when I specifically asked about it.
