I was nervous going in about a procedure I was having. The front desk was very sweet, and Dr C and her nurse took as much time as I needed to explain everything. The results were beautiful! Highly recommend her practice. Top notch!

When I was dissatisfied by outcome of procedure, I was told by office manager they would not treat me again, ever, although a high level medical staffer agreed with me. We were all very polite. I wouldn’t go back if they paid ME.

I’ve been a patient of Dr Chastain and Melissa’s for many years now. I feel like I get the utmost care at the office. Scheduling or wait times have never been an issue here, and both providers have amazing and knowledgeable nurses! I always feel well taken care of when I leave her office. I’ve recommended her to many of my other family and friends and they agree completely. You will not find another dermatologist better than Dr Chastain’s office in Athens!

Dr C has been my dermatologist for over 10 years since my other one retired. Her staff is cordial and professional and Dr C and her PA Melissa are top notch. She is understandably busy but to me that indicates that she is popular and good. She is very personable I've found and to me that is the reason I get checked twice a year. Anyone who is negative about her has got to be schizophrenic. Mark my words.

I've been seeing Dr Chastain for years now. I always feel that I'm taken care of and all my concerns are always addresses. Seems shes had the same group of girls working for her for years now. To me, that speaks highly in her character!
