I have been a patient of Dr. Kelly's for 15 plus years and at every visit she explains clearly and treats efficiently any new problems I have and always follows up on any previous problems. She is very patient and sincerely cares for my dermatological and overall health and wellbeing. Having Dr. Kelly as my dermatologist gives me peace of mind and I'm thankful to be a patient of such a knowledgable and accomplished physician. It's wonderful that she trains others...Linda Latter

Dr. Kelly made a special effort to care for my daughter. We were in church and my daughter fell and bumped her head. A call for doctor went out and Dr. Kelly stepped forward to provide assistance without hesitation. She made sure my daughter was stable, checked her vitals and made a follow up call. She was pleasant, empathetic, and professional. Our family is very grateful to Dr. Kelly!

This dermatologist has been treating my family's skin for 15 years and is versatile in cosmetic and medical issues relating to skin. We are in great hands with her expertise and guidance. She is reassuring and knowledgable on all matters relating to state of the art laser treatment, as well as as conventional treatment options.

Dr. Kelly has been an exceptional doctor both for myself and my wife. She sees us when we need to be seen, spends significant time with us, follows up after visit. When we have problems, she's quickly in touch. In a era when reaching doctors, getting appointments is often touch, she makes time for us even when she's very busy. In short, I'd recommend her caring, highly capable way of working to anyone. Five stars, not four.

Dr. Kelly called us in the evening after my daughters procedure to see how she was doing. She took great care of her and did lots of things to make her comfortable.
