Dr. Peter John Jenkin, MD

Wish I could give 0 stars. He is the worst Doctor I have ever had. Rude, demeaning, did not listen and dismissed me. He performed a surgery and he did not complete it. When I followed up, everyone could feel it still inside and he gaslit me and said that he could not feel it but it literally sticks out of my body. He then refused to help me further saying that its not real. I'm considering suing, avoid this man at all costs, I think his license should be revoked. Shame on you.

If you have a skin problem, definitely do not go here, unprofessional and demeaning

when dr Jenkins had his office in Hamilton Ontario I had a severe case of psoriasis and in a short period of time dr Jenkins was able to find the right medication psoriasis was cleared up in under two weeks wish he was still in Hamilton.

No follow-up from the office, but that wasn't a big deal. Be on time; staff will scold you if you're late. I've seen Dr. Jenkin for acne and AK/SCC stuff. Surgical procedures are mostly painless and they get SCC in one shot. I may need Mohs surgery soon, and Dr. Jenkin is the first doc I'm considering.

I booked this appointment for a skin condition that I have had for over 3 years and that, most recently, worsened slightly after having my first child. I had previously been seen at the Cleveland Clinic and was prescribed a medication that worked wonderfully. Upon making this appointment with Dr. Jenkin, I explained to the staff that I wanted a consult for my condition and that I also wanted a prescription for the same medication that I previously used. When Dr. Jenkin came into the examination room, he quickly looked at the area and advised that he did not think that it was that bad and didn't think that I needed anything for it. I told him that, in the past, this condition has worsened very quickly and is quite embarrassing; therefore, I would like to proactively treat it, especially given the fact that making a doctor's appointment for myself with a newborn in toe is difficult to arrange. He simply advised me to wear sunscreen, and offered a chemical peel if it worsened. Really? My… husband is also a physician and, if we weren't ethical people, I would have just obtained this prescription by other means. As a former attorney and the wife of a doctor, I think I'm educated enough to realize that I need to wear sunscreen, and I didn't make the appointment to obtain obvious advice. I left with a couple of sunscreen recommendations that weren't even available in the Ballard office (where I went for my appointment), and hugely disappointed. My advice is to look elsewhere if you are wanting a physician who at least offers more than stating the obvious. If Dr. Jenkin didn't want to prescribe the cream that I previously used, he should have at least offered something a bit more helpful than SPF and the purchase of a wide-brimmed sun hat. Good Dermatologists ARE out there, even if I apparently have to travel back to Cleveland to see one.

Dr. Jenkin is the absolute best dermatologist I have had the pleasure seeing. Simply top notch, I highly recommend him.
