I have been a patient of Dr. Coleman's for over 20 years. He is well known throughout the country and lectures all over the world. I have been to him for minor issues as well as cosmetic procedures. I am always pleased with the results. His office staff is wonderful - friendly and efficient.

Dr. Coleman is very patient and understanding, as I am a big chicken. I trust him completely. He won't let you waste your money on procedures that won't give you the results you want. I live in Arizona where there are very many prominent dermatologists, but I wait to see Dr. Coleman when I go to Metairie.

Wonderful office and a highly regarded dermatologist. Very personable... really listens to the patient (unlike many dermatologist you don't leave feeling like a number). Caters treatment to the individual!

I've have been seeing Dr.Coleman since 1987. Dr.Coleman is professional,along with being a gentle doctor. He is so talented and I could never image not having him not as my doctor. He is simply the BEST.
