The apptmt with Dr Geskin was outstanding. She inspected different areas of my skin and commented on how much improvement in its condition was evident. Dr Geskin also inspected a wound on my foot and was enthused on how much it had improved.She also indicated that she would confirm with Quest Diagnostics the appropriate tests that they would perform on my weekly blood samples. Altogether, it was outstanding!
