This is my second visit to see Dr. Wise and it was the same amazing experience as the first visit. The entire staff is very kind, competent and efficient. Dr. Wise was quick to identify my skin conditions and provide solutions. She is not only competent but is very sweet and engages me in the conversation and makes sure all my questions are answered before I leave the office. I would highly recommend!

It felt as if she recommended a generic high rated soap for a generic skin type, she didn't really look closely, last doctor they identified that I had eczema and she didn't take that into account, and instead listed soaps for X skin type, It didn't feel personal. It didn't feel as if those 4 minutes were worth my $200. I could've googled for what soaps were good for my skin type and it would be the same as visiting her.

I have used Dr. Wise for a number of years and find she is very thorough in her examinations and does a good job of explaining what she is looking at and what to do to reduce any chances of skin cancer in the future. Her staff is friendly and helpful.
