Even after pointing out a couple of areas of concern to her assistant, she looked me over and gave me a thumbs up. I had to remind her of the spots, and then she told me that they were precancerous and burnt them off. She quickly (3 minutes) looked me over, and told me everything looked good. My old doctor used to draw new moles in a diagram of my body, or take pictures, not Dr. Stead. I have another spot that is concerning, she quickly said, it was not, and dismissed it. Three months later, it still persists and now I have to go to another dermatologist to have them check it out. I do not have faith in her.

Didn’t see her until 48 min after scheduled appt time this office should call patients if she is running behind by almost ONE HOUR! Ridiculous She’s obviously over scheduling appts! Will find another dermatologist
