Dr. Bruce Ronald Carlton, MD

I think Dr. Carlton is amazing. He takes the time to really diagnose and treat your problem. I had severe dandruff and scales and my hair was falling out in clumps. I lost about 60% of my hair. He encouraged me to take a multitude of blood tests, fungus tests, and even a scalp biopsy. I was finally diagnosed with Serrobic Dermatitis which led to me having Tellogen Effluvian (hair shedding). He also has a terrific bedside manner. He makes conversation and really explains your diagnosis and treatment plan. I am proud to say that my hair is now growing and it is so thick now. I know this is off topic, but I have to admit I have a crush on him because he is so likeable. And, I am half his age. Well, anyways, I highly recommend Dr. Carlton!

Dr. Carlton often runs late, but he really knows his field. There is no substitute for his lifetime of experience.

I would not recommend this doctor to my worst enemy. My appointment was at 130 and two hours later still no doctor or a nurse to tell me what's with the hold up. Yes, bed side manners and attentiveness is very important with a doctor but so is punctuality for appointments made by your own office! His patients are very lucky that he's only a dermatologist and not a heart surgeon. This office is a joke.

I have seen Dr. Carlton over the last 7 years. He is very professional and has great bedside manner. Truely a caring doctor who puts his patient care first (yes, his office is simple and a little dirty). I think the reason he gets behind in his schedule is that he allocates special care to his patients and give them everything he has. Yet, I have waited up to three hours to see Dr. Carlton. I have learned to book the first appointment of the day. Then you have a max 30 min delay. Great doctor...not many like him...but you have to be patient and schedue accordingly.

Great dermatologist! only one that diagnosed me correctly after seeing serveral Dr's. & the medicine he prescribe has been working wonders for over a year now! the wait in the waiting room is worth it.

Altho he was 25 mins. late for first appt of the day, he appeared to be aware of what he was referring to===and I hope his follow up and estimation of slides in 2 weeks is accurate.Office was clean-=staff is very nice===wait time in room was only 5 mins.All in all I am happy with the visit.

good DR i knowen him sece i was a little kid

As requested, I arrived at the Vallejo office well in advance to complete my new patient forms. I completed this process and paid my co-pay before the scheduled appoitment time. I waited for 65 minutes and then advised the receptionist I would wait no longer. I will obtain medical treatment elsewhere.

Dr. Carlton is a great doctor that truly cares about his patients. I recommend him highly.

I would absolutely recomend this doctor. His office doesn't have all the glamour and glitz but people are nice and my issue was taken care of.
